"Once Joe Kurtz needed revenge -- and revenge cost him eleven years in Attica prison. Now Kurtz needs a job, and the price is going to be higher. Out of prison, out of touch, Kurtz signs on with the Byron Farino, Don of a Mob family whose son Kurtz had been protecting on the inside. Farino enlists Kurtz's help to track down the Family's missing accountant -- a man with too much knowledge of Family business to have on the loose. But someone doesn't want the accountant found -- and with enemies inside the Family vying for his throne, and turf warfare just around the corner, Farino needs an outsider like Kurtz to flush out who's really behind this latest affront. As the story twists and turns and the body count rises, Kurtz no longer knows who he can trust. Everyone seems to be after something, from the mob boss's sultry yet dangerous daughter, to a hit man named The Dane, an albino killer who is good with a knife, and a dwarf who is armed to the teeth and hell-bent on revenge. Kurtz has always been an ace investigator. Now he's about to discover that to get at the truth, sometimes you have to go after it -- hard."--Page 4 of cover.

In Hardcase, there's plenty of tough guy attitude, cold-blooded violence and colorful street characters, but, unfortunately, none of the emotional complexity and clever plot twists that marks the best work in this genre. Though it's not a bad novel, it's like watching a stock Hollywood shoot-em up without the Dolby soundtrack or the buttered popcorn. Mr. Simmons probably had a lot of fun writing this one, but his work in other genres is far superior.
