Product Description
An All-New, totally reformatted, updated, and repackaged edition!
From Lee Goldberg, the bestselling author of THE WALK, comes all four of his acclaimed JURY novels..collected into one mega-sized, pulse-pounding, thrill-ride that will leave you breathless:
JUDGMENT * ADJOURNED * PAYBACK * GUILTY
The complete saga of Brett Macklin, a one-man judge, jury, and executioner, fighting a war on terror on the streets of Los Angeles in the mid-1980s. Over 160,000 words/550 pages of non-stop action, wildly erotic sex, and wicked humor.
The series, published in 1985, under the title ".357 Vigilante," was written by Ian Ludlow... a pseudonym for Lee Goldberg, who wrote the books while he was a UCLA student, under the supervision of his professor, novelist Lewis Perdue ("The DaVinci Legacy," "The Queensgate Reckoning," "Daughter of God," etc). Goldberg would later go on to write and/or produce such TV shows as "Monk," "Diagnosis Murder," "SeaQuest," and "The Glades" and write many more novels, including THE WALK and the best-selling "Monk" series of original mysteries. This compendium includes "Guilty," the long-lost fourth and final book in the series, which was caught up in the bankruptcy of Pinnacle Books, the original publisher, and was never published in print. For decades, it was considered "lost" and coveted by fans of the men's action adventure genre...before it was finally found and, at long last, published as an ebook.
And as a special bonus, this edition includes "Hot Sex and Gory Violence," Lee Goldberg's Newsweek essay about the writing of the series.
