About This Book
The third book in the classic Revenger series... back in print for the first time in nearly fifty years.Ben Martin is trying to live a quiet, mundane life in Morrisville, a small town south of Indianapolis. But his violent past won't let him go. The Mafia has hired Corbett, an expensive assassin who has never failed, to track him down and kill him. Martin's only hope of survival is to turn the hunter into the prey. To do that, Martin must become even more brutal, and more lethal, than the deadly monster who is pursuing him. Martin might live... but only if he murders whatever shred of humanity he still has left.Messmann has figured out how to retain the realistic nature of his series while keeping it all fast-moving and exciting. The Revenger series still has more in common with a literary sort of novel than, say, The Executioner. He makes you care about his characters. Glorious TrashMartin is the prey this time around. Excitement, tension, thrills, action, death, violence, romance, sex, pursuit and a final confrontation. Followed by a further final confrontation! 4.5 out of 5 stars. The Criminal Library
