Publisher's Summary:
At last - the classic murder-mystery, presented in its original form!
Former P.I. Mitch Holliday loses his license after being framed for money laundering and is reduced to helping his partner, Lionel Banks, pick up Lila Hendricks, wanted for skipping bail. En route, Lionel is killed and Mitch is drawn into a world of money, murder and double-cross. His new surroundings are hard and uncompromising and he's at once seduced and repulsed by the obscene wealth of socialite Claire Dixon and her manipulative, crippled sister Elaina, especially when he compares it to the hand-to-mouth existence of his neighbor Donna Banks.
But murder is the name of the game, the target a rich, ruthless businessman with few redeeming qualities. The question is: Will Mitch, tough and cynical as he is, sacrifice what few principles he has in order to kill for the promise of wealth and Claire's love?

Crime Stories
Love these short ones; straight and to the point, usually with a twist. More will be purchased as I read through them.
Another Good Book
Hayes does a great job of keeping you involved in the story. I enjoyed this one a lot. Had a time laying it down.
What Happens When A Cynical Private Eye meets The Woman of his Dreams
Steve Hayes has been an actor, a writer, and a man about Hollywood who met many of the stars of the golden age of movies, climbed Mt Kilimanjaro, and hobnobbed with Hemingway in pre-revolutionary Cuba. He has written dozens and dozens of books, particularly westerns. "A Woman To Die For" is Hayes' tribute to Hardboiled mysteries and, in it, you can't miss how he pays homage to Raymond Chandler's "The Big Sleep," particularly the character of the thumb sucking, purring daughter.
This story has the hatdboiled, cynical detective who acts more crooked than he really is, the sexy blonde siren who melts his good judgment, the sister who thinks her palms bleed from stigmatas, fiery car crashes, doublecrossing partners, motel rendezvous, bodies piling up, wild casinos, estate parties, cabins along the shores of Lake Tahoe, and all kinds of twists and perversions.
It is a lot of fun to read and Hayes peppers this modern detective story with OldFashioned attitude.
Although the plot could have been tighter and more focused, overall, it is a highly worthwhile read.
Tommy Lightfoot Garrett with Canyon News Loved Steve HAYES' New Book
SANTA MONICA --British born author Steve (aka: Ivan) Hayes first arrived in Hollywood in the late 1940s and moved here permanently in 1950. Once an actor, he helped support himself by parking cars at some of Hollywood's most glamorous and well-known hot spots on the Sunset Strip. He became friends during that time with legends such as, Ava Gardner, Lana Turner, Errol Flynn and Marilyn Monroe to name a few. In 1955 the handsome actor started writing and has now completed not only books, but movies and scripts produced and aired on TV.
I recently had the great opportunity to enjoy his latest fictional work, "A Woman To Die For," which was published by the esteemed publishing house Bear Manor. The book's protagonist Mitch Holliday is a down on his luck investigator who after being framed for money laundering is quickly lowered to helping his P.I. partner, Lionel Banks to search for and find a young lady named Lila Hendricks.
