The Goliath Bone (A Mike Hammer Novel)

[Read by Stacy Keach] The bestselling American mystery writer of all time brings back his world-famous private eye, Mike Hammer, for his biggest and most dangerous case yet. On an amateur archeology dig in Israel, two students discover what appears to be the femur of the Biblical giant Goliath. As the novel opens, the young couple head into a subway station with the carefully wrapped bone in the boy's arms, when a hit man attempts to kill them. Mike Hammer, seeing the situation develop, comes to their rescue. It is only the beginning of their trouble as various factions will stop at little to obtain the precious item, each for their own selfish reasons. But Hammer and his loyal secretary, Velda, assure once again that good triumphs over evil. Before he died, Mickey Spillane wrote the beginning and end of The Goliath Bone, as well as outlining the middle section, which was completed by his long-time friend and collaborator, the acclaimed mystery writer Max Allan Collins.
