Bill and Fiona, the lovable anti-heroes of the "Love & Bullets" trilogy, find themselves in the toughest of tough spots: badly wounded, hunted by assorted cops and goons, and desperately in need of a drink (or five).

After a round-the-world tour of spectacular criminality, Bill and Fiona find themselves back in New York. But it's not exactly home-sweet-home: Locked in a panic room on the top floor of a skyscraper, surrounded by pretty much everyone in three zip codes who wants to kill them, they'll need to figure out how to stay upright and breathing... and maybe deal out a little payback in the process.

Can they survive?

Even better, can they make a profit off all this?

Main Bad Guy caps a series described as "a Tarantino movie in prose" (Sons of Spade) and "deliciously deranged" (Raven Crime Reads).

Praise for MAIN BAD GUY: "It's no surprise that Nick Kolakowski brought the heat with his latest novel Main Bad Guy. The surprise is that you won't know which landed harder: His stripped-down, hard-boiled prose, the explosive dialogue, or the wickedly insane and diabolical humor. Grab hold of this one with both hands and hold on tight." -Eryk Pruitt, author of Townies and What We Reckon
