Publisher's Synopsis
THE KINGDOM OF KILLAIN- -that's the Duarte, a big-city hotel at the cross 'roads of the world. The grifters, tough lads, girls on the make-all learn to stay away from Hotel Duarte because Johnny Killain's in charge there. That's his turf-a flick of his fist makes broken guys and dolls. So Johnny patrolled the dark corridors in peace until the night he rounded a bend and looked murder square in the eye.
