About The First Quarry
<p>BIG MAN ON CAMPUS </p><p>Crime fiction readers know Quarry, the ruthless killer-for-hire, from Max Allan Collins’ acclaimed novels – most recently <em>THE LAST QUARRY</em>, which told the story of the assassin’s final assignment (and was the basis for the feature film <em>The Last Lullaby</em>). </p><p>But where did Quarry's story start? For first time ever, the best-selling author of<em>ROAD TO PERDITION</em> takes us back to the beginning, revealing the never-before-told story of Quarry’s first job: infiltrating a college campus and eliminating a professor whose affair with one of his beautiful, young students is the least of his sins…</p>From Booklist<p>Indefatigable genre veteran Collins brought back his hit-man hero Quarry two years ago (The Last Quarry, 2006) after a 30-year hiatus. Now he flashes way back to reveal how Quarry got in the killing business. Naturally, it started in Vietnam, where ne’er-do-well Quarry found something he was good at—killing people; later, after a wrong turn or two back in the States, he hooks up with a broker who runs a murder-for-hire business. Quarry’s first target: a philandering college professor whose latest conquest happens to be the coed daughter of a Chicago mafioso. Rationalizing that the prof is a dead man whether or not Quarry does the deed, our antihero takes the job. Like Lawrence Block in his hit-man series starring the similarly one-named Keller, Collins manages the neat trick of engendering sympathy for a killer by muddying the moral waters: plot complications change the terms of the deal, requiring Quarry to do his killing out of self-preservation rather than cold-blooded commerce. Either way, Collins knows the terrain, mixing pulp-style action with just enough character building to keep us going. Great entertainment from a pro’s pro. --Bill Ott </p>Review<p>Violent and volatile and packed with sexuality…classic pulp fiction --USA Today </p><p>Collins witty, hard boiled prose would make Raymond Chandler proud --Entertainment Weekly </p><p>As cool as an Eskimo Pie on a hot summer day and as sharp as a Ginsu knife --Milwaukee Journal Sentinel </p>
