This is a sequel to Hack’s boxing novel “Jonny Knockout.” Like all boxing sequels, it has exactly the same story as the original with a slightly different ending.
The Return of Jonny Knockout
Category: Dangerous Dames
Nude Fury
Hack’s friend Rosanna De Candia was outraged when she saw the cover of “Junior Ranger and the Essential Workers” and realized that she had been depicted as a doctor wearing scrubs, since she only tolerated being pictured on Hack’s book covers if she was shown in the scantiest of attire. Hack quickly wrote this follow-up in which a character based upon Ms. De Candia is naked throughout the entire story to make it up to her.
Boat of Death/Train of Death
This was the second time that Hack had used the title “Train of Death.” When pressed about it, he angrily replied “how many modes of transportation of death do you think there are? It’s inevitable that some are going to pop up more than once!”
Fingered
The Return of Doctor Mercy: Female Mad Scientist
This sequel to “Doctor Mercy: Female Mad Scientist” has the insane distaff genius removing the brain of a Hack Werker-like writer of pulp fiction to see if he has the Covid-19 virus. He doesn’t.
Blonde on the Run
Her Motive Was Lust
A gorgeous woman appears to have murdered her male roommate and hires her ex-lover Detective Jonny to solve the case. It turns out that the roommate faked his own death and the pair pinned it on Jonny, who gets as far as having the noose placed over his head on the gallows when Hack suddenly lost interest in the story and spent the last twenty pages railing against his abusive father.
The Blackmailers
For some reason Hack lives in mortal fear of being blackmailed, although no one can quite figure out why because he’s put so much dirt about himself in his novels that nothing could possibly come out that is worse than what the world already knows.
Murder at the Book Signing
Hack based this story on an incident that took place after the publication of “The Three Way” where his friend Rosie De Candia tried to murder him at a book signing after she she her picture on the cover.
Return of the Dangerous Gams
Hack was dissatisfied with “Dangerous Gams and the Mystery of the Heart-Shaped Bed” and wanted to retire the series. But his readership demanded a new installment so he cranked this out during his lunch hour from his job as the night janitor of Shakey’s Pizza Parlor as a fantasy of how he imagined his shift would be when he got back from his break. His heroes spent most of their time having anal sex with the titular vamp in between scenes of them solving a mystery involving some stolen diamonds, while Hack actually spent the next few hours scraping vomit from off the Ms. Pac Man machine.
