The Charleston Knife is Back in Town (Hardman Book 2)
by Ralph Dennis
Read
Read in February 2019
I received this from AudioBookBoom and the publisher, Brash Books, in exchange for an honest review.
This really is an outstanding series, and is so much more than the “Men’s Action Adventure” that is was marketed as back when it was first published in the mid-70s. So glad that Brash Books is rereleasing these long-lost books!
Just like the first one, Jim Hardman and Hump Evans get wrapped up in some violent shenanigans, this time involving a group of kids who set up a robbery of some high-rolling gamblers; of course, it goes wrong, and they are hunted by the Atlanta gang bosses, along with a hired assassin. Hardman and Hump are hired by the grandmother of one of the boys, and immediately run afowl of the assassin and an Italian mafioso.
As expected, Shawn Compton does an outstanding job narrating, and I can’t wait to listen to the next one!
