Book Overview

When Bill Wayne's friends began throwing bullets his way, he figured it was time to find out what they had against him He took along a 45 in case the conversation should get rough -so it wasn't surprising that each old pal Bill visited suddenly turned up dead. But what burned Bill most was the way Carson Smith, the hick copper on his trail, insisted on playing intimate games with Holly Clark. The two seemed far more interested in each other's anatomy than in whether Bill was murdering his friends, or vice versa. This description may be from another edition of this product.

An Absurdly Funny Premise Leading to Solidly Entertaining Noir

By Thriftbooks.com User, August 8, 2006

Admittedly, the premise of "Say It With Bullets" is completely absurd and riddled with the kind of coincidences that would spoil other works begging more serious regard. The hilarity of the first chapter coupled with many tongue-in-cheek nuances peppered throughout is a clear signal that the author understands this, if not by all members of his audience. Bill Wayne, searching for the unknown army buddy who has twice shot...

A True Classic! Just Optioned By Hollywood!

By Thriftbooks.com User, May 30, 2006

Say It With Bullets is one of those books mystery lovers have talked about since it first appeared 50 years ago. Because it has been out of print so long, copies were extremely hard to come by, making this one something of a Holy Grail among mystery fans. Well, now, courtesy of Hard Case Crime, the book is back in a handsome paperback edition. This is a great story of revenge yet told with many humorous touches. Bill Wayne,...

HCC does it again...

By Thriftbooks.com User, March 14, 2006

Say it With Bullets is a welcome addition to the Hard Case Crime library. This has, arguably, one of the best opening paragraphs to a book that I have ever read. It sets the tone for a book that ultimately is about reverenge, dames and has a great sense-of-humor about it. Richard Powell, who also authored "A Shot in the Dark" will hopefully be yet another name resurfaced to mystery fans via HCC. Run - don't walk - to your...

I rate this one 5 bullets out of 5

By Thriftbooks.com User, March 11, 2006

Hard Case Crime successfully recreates the excitement of a time when print was the primary source of entertainment. The covers, the design, and the engaging stories, take the reader back to a time when crimes were solved by guts, brains, brawn, and the occasional beauty mixed in just for inspiration. I can't wait until the end of the day to escape into the shadows these writers imagined so well in these stories. Richard Powells...

Funny and suspenseful

By Thriftbooks.com User, February 28, 2006

"At the overnight stop in North Platte, Nebraska, Bill Wayne didn't copy the other tourists in the party when they bought postcards to mail to friends. He was running a little low on friends these days. Once he had classed five guys as friends but they had picked up a habit of doing things behind his back, like shooting at it. The only wish-you-were-here postcard he wanted to send them was a picture of a cemetery." -- from...
