Summary
Private eye Mike Hammer is no stranger to murder, but this time he has two to untangle - the killing of the Captain, a legless, homeless panhandler, dismissed by the police as minor, and the slaying of gambling kingpin Marty Wellman, whose lady friend, Helen Venn, turns to the P.I. for help when the Mob fingers her for the next kill. Seems the new kingpin, Carmen Rich - with whom Hammer has a violent history - thinks Helen made off with ten mil in skim money courtesy of her late lover, or anyway, so Rich claims. But Mike Hammer knows a damsel in distress when he sees one and takes up Helen's cause, igniting a series of hit attempts on the P.I. by a small army of out-of-town shooters - some as far out of town as Cuba. Such minor distractions can't prevent the toughest detective of them all from solving two murders and avenging a "little death" in a big way.

So bad it's good! Gum shoe detective
Very tongue in cheek production, I wouldn't use a credit on it but worth a listen if on membership.
I loved how he racked a cricket score of dead bodies throughout the plot line. Plot line and ending can be seen from a mile off , but enjoyable rubbish

Mike Hammer with a cell?
Love the old Mike Hammer stories, especially the era in which they are set, so a bit of the ordinary hearing Mike Hammer in the modern world
