Jack Carter's Law by Ted Lewis, 213 pages.
The second in the Carter series, it's actually a prequel to Get Carter. The title character is unchanged from the first book, taciturn, unafraid of violence or causing others harm, and unwilling to take too much grief from anyone. It's not a particularly great book, but it's a fast read with no surprises. Good for fans of crime fiction.

As hardboiled as it gets. There are no good guys in this novel about a London organized crime fixer who has to sort out the competition in order to find a "grass" (informant) who is going to shop him and his firm. The story of Jack Carter before the events of Get Carter and his trip north. A hardboiled masterpiece. Highly recommended.
