$15 USD, says Amazon. New American Library (Penguin's
imprint), 0451205960. I checked Penguin's web site but they
only put books in their online catalogue two weeks before
publication, so there's no way to know what stories are
included. Ah, but looking at the picture of the cover I see
Block, Cain, Goodis, Himes, Evan Hunter, John Jakes,
Kaminsky, MacDonald, Macdonald, Muller, Paretsky and
Westlake. 32 stories included, that's 12 authors, so there
could be 20 more. Be interesting to see what Spillane
likes.
