KILL THE GIGOLO by Robert Fate
Kill the Gigolo is a stand alone, contemporary, hardboiled crime adventure.
Boston gangster Al Foley has a grudge to settle and only the head of a New York City gigolo named Erik Lamar will even the score. The Irish Mob is given an assignment: kill the gigolo.
When the mutilated corpse of Erik's friend, Freddy, is found dumped in the street, Erik gets the warning--what happened to Freddy is a Girl Scout demerit compared to what is planned for him. But first, they have to catch him. One step ahead of Foley's thugs, the smooth-talking ladies man flies off to Mexico, thinking he has traded terror for a life of leisure with a rich older woman who delights in bad boys like Erik.
But it's not so easy. He meets a beauty named Valerieâ€"â€"and he thought Al Foley was dangerous. Lies and deceit become Erik's way of life in the tropics, and in no time losing his head to the mob becomes the least of his worries.
