RESCUE FOR A ROGUE
Jerry Broadfield was a cop on the take who took the easy way out as star witness for a state prosecutor out to smash police corruption. But now Jerry's beautiful and very kinky call girl friend was dead, and Jerry himself had a murder rap hanging over his cocky head. Matt Scudder didn't like him and didn't trust him, but he could cop a big fee to clear him.

Scudder started with the idea that everyone from the NYPD's top cop to the lowest gutter scum was guilty until proven innocent. But even he had no idea of what he was stepping into when he stepped out on the streets.

MATT SCUDDER is a New York based private detective without a license and with a code of his own. Catch him in this and other novels, exclusively in Dell editions.
