The Ill-Timed Poop

Here’s another tribute to a Hack supporter. Rob Vestal has always making a point of “liking” our posts when he checks them out and in thanks, he’s inevitably depicted as a murder victim when the story calls for it. In this novel, the story of Vestal’s availabilty as a corpse is explained when his super-hot paramour (depicted as 1940s movie star Gene Tierney) turned out to be a Mistress of Disguise who makes up a Skid Row vagrant that Vestal rubs out to look like him whenever he needs to fake his own death (which is alarmingly often).

Silk Stockings

Happy Nylon Stockings Day! (Yes, we know the title of the book is Silk Stockings. Hack was supposed to title it Nylon Stockings in honor of the holiday but he changed it because – as he put it – “You’ll see silk stockings draped over an armoire in a Parisian cathouse, while you’ll find nylon stockings hiding the vericose veins of a late-middle aged paralegal at a stockholders meeting.” We saw his point.)
