Hero's Lust / The Man I Killed / House of Evil

Lion Books in the 1950s was a mini-powerhouse of hard-boiled and noir paperback original crime fiction. They published just over 200 books in their main series mostly crime and westerns—but even their western novels were brutal hard-boiled violent noir. Their crime novels were something much more—even better—with stories that went far beyond anything anyone else was publishing at the time. The Lion series is loaded with unrelenting noir crime masterpieces. In these three novels you will make for some very pleasant discoveries.
