SUICIDE SQUEEZE by Victor Gischler

Read the first chapter, author bio, and links to buy online

The Edgar Award-nominated author of GUN MONKEYS delivers an adrenaline rush of a novel that features a special appearance by Joe DiMaggio. The high spot of Teddy Folger's life was the day in 1954 that he got an autographed baseball card from Joe DiMaggio himself. It's been downhill ever since. Which is why he just unloaded his freeloading wife and torched his own comic-book store—in one of the stupidest insurance scams in history.

Enter Conner Samson. The down-on-his-luck repo man has just been hired to repossess Teddy's boat. Little does he know there's a baseball card on board that some men are willing to kill for. Thus begins a rip-roaring cross-country odyssey. And with bodies piling up, the squeeze is on for the penultimate piece of Americana. Conner will be lucky if he ends up back where he started: broke and (still) breathing.
