The publisher on this edition

The price of Truth! Mike Dolan is a widely read newspaper columnist, but he's intensely frustrated by his newspaper's shelving the stories that count – like a rich brat's drunk-driving accident, a KKK like racist-fascist group called the Crusaders, or a pennant-winning baseball team fixing games. Dolan has had enough, and starts up his own magazine. But freedom comes with consequences and at high cost. With issues relevant even today like freedom of the press, fake news, women rights, xenophobia, sports corruption, No Pockets in a Shroud is a hard-hitting book that showcases McCoy's fast-paced, suspenseful and classic hard-boiled fiction style.
