It's a book premier right here on Paperback Warrior! I narrate the new 75-page novella GUNS DRAWN by Thomas Hyland, a violent, tightly-knit character piece involving bad guys, sexy women, gunplay, and bloodshed. It's a stylish 1950ish potboiler...and it's free for you.
SYNOPSIS:
Daisy Mae married mob accountant Abner Little to escape the wrong side of the tracks. Her escape turned into a short-cut to Hell. Abner prefers other women. He rubs it in her face. So Daisy opens her heart to handsome Dwayne Duncan, who agrees to kill Abner for her. Has Daisy Mae gone from the frying pan to the fire?
Dwayne Duncan turns out may have some baggage of his own. Dwayne is right hand man to big shot Harvey Bishop, Abner's boss. Dwayne decides to frame Abner and one of his girlfriends.
Easy peasy, right? Abner's girlfriend is seeing the boss' volatile son Flynn. Simple goes out the door. As Dwayne connives, Bishop dies creating a power vacuum that turns the city into a bloodbath.
C'est la vie.
Praise for GUNS DRAWN:
"Guns Drawn is a fast-paced homage to noir crime; violence, betrayal, and existential emptiness spiraling into chaotic ruin. If the pulps were still printing then surely Thomas Hyland would be a contributor."-ERIC COMPTON (PAPERBACK WARRIOR)
