Red Hot Ice by Frank Kane is a gripping noir mystery that plunges readers into the gritty underworld of New York City. Originally published in 1955, it is a classic pulp fiction read.
A case of corpses. They piled up so fast that private eye Johnny Liddell figured he was ahead if he found them while they were still warm. It started when he was hired as a babysitter to a declining starlet. She was blonde and beautiful, and stacked better than a deck of marked cards. And she had a cool $200,000 worth of hot diamonds. There was just one hitch. She used bourbon instead of perfume.
Private investigator Johnny Liddell is no stranger to danger, but when he's hired to investigate the murder of a fellow private detective, he finds himself entangled in a web of deceit and betrayal that threatens to consume him. With his back against the wall and time running out, Liddell must navigate the treacherous streets of the city and outsmart his enemies before it's too late. But with danger lurking around every corner, he soon realizes that in this deadly game, no one can be trusted, and the truth may be more elusive than he ever imagined.
Frank Kane's Johnny Liddell series has always been a solid hardboiled read, pulpy good, and a solid read. This novel is no exception. Filled with pulse-pounding action, unexpected twists, and razor-sharp dialogue, Red Hot Ice is a classic tale of noir suspense that will keep readers on the edge of their seats until the very last page.
