The only "-owski" I can drum up is George Zebrowski, who,
along with Charles Pellegrino, produced one of the nastiest
SF novels I've read in recent years -- THE KILLING STAR. It's
an End-of-Humanity/Invasion novel with very hard science and
great concepts. Reverses the SETI invitation with a
vengeance.
I can't think of anyone named Sam, except Delany or Sundwall,
and I don't believe they'd remotely qualify for hardboiled
SF.
Best regards,
... Reed
