Ultimate Pulp the Fifth Grave by Jonathan Latimer & Night Squad by David Goodis

TWO CLASSIC PULP NOVELS, COMPLETE AND UNABRIDGED - THE FIFTH GRAVE - Karl Craven is a private eye who likes playing it the hard way-but before he can rescue Penelope Grayson from a cult running the vice-ridden temple of Solomon, he has to tangle with trigger happy thugs, a redhead with an attitude and the queen of all blonde dames from hell. NIGHT SQUAD - The Night Squad wanted Corey on its team, and the racket boys wanted him, too. The trouble was that Corey wanted them both. But the cops had offered only Corey a badge, while Walter Grogan had bribed him with big money. Both sides were brutal, both knew as much about the slum as the rats infesting it. And Corey Bradford walked a tightrope between them, not knowing whether the man who smiled at him one day would be aiming a bullet at his head the next.
