The First Quarry

Collins, Max Allan
Quarry's first job, eliminating a college professor.

Quote:

The pie was in fact excellent, a thin crust with a lot of tomato sauce and just the right amount of mozzarella and seemed to me just about the best pizza ever, although you should factor in that I'd been living on Slim Jims, beef jerky and Hostess cupcakes.

"...A nice kid, messed up in a business like that."

Quote:

Bait Money
Blood Money

Who is the disguntled-looking blond in the, uh, bikini?, on the cover smoking a cigar after lightening it with paper money?? I'm guessing it is Sherry.
