I've been seeking out the Hard Case Crime books for a while. I used to get the paperbacks but it's audiobooks all the way now. I've amassed a reasonable collection and so started a list of haves and have-nots, availables and unavailables. I figured this might be of interest to anyone else into pulp crime.
* * *
All the books below are ready and waiting for you on ABB. Some are hidden in collections and not necessarily tagged as Hard Case, but nevertheless they're Hard Case and they're out there...
* * *

Max Allan Collins - Deadly Beloved - Seduction of the Innocent - Quarry - Quarry's List - Quarry's Vote - Quarry's Cut - Quarry's Deal - Quarry's Choice - The First Quarry - The Last Quarry - Quarry in the Middle - Quarry's Ex - The Wrong Quarry - Quarry in the Black - Quarry's Climax - Killing Quarry
Michael Crichton (writing as John Lange) - Odds On - Scratch One - Easy Go - Zero Cool - The Venom Business - Drug of Choice - Grave Descend - Binary
Mickey Spillane - Dead Street - The Last Stand
Pete Hamill - The Guns of Heaven
Richard Aleas - Little Girl Lost - Songs of Innocence
Richard Stark - Lemons Never Lie
Stephen King - The Colorado Kid - Joylander
*This Donald Westlake title is scheduled to be republished by Hard Case Crime in early 2021. However I uploaded a previously published version a little while back and its still seeding.

Ray Bradbury - Killer, Come Back to Me
Max Allan Collins - Skim Deep (coming November 2020)
Stephen King - Later (coming March 2021)

The torrent for Lawrence Block's 'A Walk Among the Tombstones' might need reseeding. I'll see if I can find a copy the same and reseed it. If not, I'll upload the copy I have.

Lists #1 and #2 updated as I have uploaded torrents of 'Money Shot' and 'Choke Hold' by Christa Faust to the main site. If you download them, please keep them seeding for as long as you possibly can. 'Double Feature' by Donald Westlake came out under the Hard Case Crime imprint in February 2020. No audiobook version available as yet so I added it to Post #3.

Cant find Richard S. Prather's The Peddler anywhere. Can you share the link?
Also, all of the Westlakes books and The Cocktail Waitress need seeding.

Most of the Quarry books are not seeding and would love to have the Westlake collections reserved please. Also if anyone has the Twenty- Year Death would be a huge thank you.

Please, put the request for reseed in REQUESTS where it is seen.
I have many of those mentioned in the last two posts but Gripper and I can't reseed if we don't know they are needed.

Hm, I'm puzzled by the missing Prather book, 'The Peddler'. I'll add the uploading of that book to my list of things-to-do. I also have Richard Aleas's 'Little Girl Lost' now so that will be uploaded soon. Hopefully justme/jodindy can take care of reseeding the Westlake colection as one of mine came from a different source and so the files won't match. If not, I will create new uploads for them.
My apologies if I'm slow responding and uploading these days. My circumstance have changed somewhat this past few months.

'The Peddler' by Richard S. Prather isn't available in audiobook form, not that I can find anyway. I have amended the lists accordingly. Sorry for any inconvenience.

The Richard Aleas title was already listed above, but I hadn't seen 'The Confession' by Domenic Stansberry on Audible as it doesn't show in my region. I'll add it right now.
