Trigger Mortis throws Johnny Liddell into a deadly tangle of gangland grudges, political corruption, and a murder that was meant to stay buried. When a high-profile hit rocks the city, Liddell is hired to find the triggerman—but the deeper he digs, the more it becomes clear that the crime is only the tip of a much larger iceberg. Every lead drags him through a gauntlet of mob enforcers, crooked officials, and witnesses who have a nasty habit of ending up dead.

Frank Kane's trademark fast pacing and hard-edged prose keep the tension simmering as Liddell works his beat: dimly lit bars, smoke-filled backrooms, and the shadowy corners of a city where everyone has something to hide. The plot twists like a switchblade, with betrayals, sudden bursts of violence, and unexpected alliances keeping Liddell on his toes. As the case unravels, so does the illusion of clear lines between good and bad—until Liddell is left with nothing but his instincts and a loaded gun.

With its snappy dialogue, relentless momentum, and vivid noir atmosphere, Trigger Mortis is vintage pulp fiction at its best. It's a bullet-fast ride through a world where every handshake might hide a knife, and survival depends on how quickly you can spot the real killer before he spots you.

Acerca del autor

Frank Kane (1912–1968) was an American author best known for his prolific output of hardboiled detective fiction, particularly the long-running Johnny Liddell series. Born in Brooklyn, New York, Kane worked in journalism and radio before turning to fiction, bringing a sharp ear for dialogue and a feel for urban grit to his storytelling. Over his career, he penned more than forty novels and hundreds of short stories, many appearing in leading pulp magazines of the era. Kane's creation, Johnny Liddell, became a fixture of mid-century crime fiction—a tough, wisecracking private eye navigating a morally ambiguous underworld. Kane's work stood out for its snappy prose, fast-moving plots, and colorful gallery of gangsters, cops, and femme fatales. Though firmly rooted in the conventions of the noir tradition, his stories carried a distinct energy and personality, earning him a loyal readership and a lasting place in the history of American pulp literature.
