Mysterious Press released ten crime novels by Stephen Solomita this week in ebook format.
Solomita's first mystery introduced New York police sergeant Stanley Moodrow in the 1988 novel A Twist of the Knife. He went on to write five more books in the series, by the conclusion of which Moodrow was a private investigator. All six of these books are included in today's ebook release.
Between the fifth and sixth books of the Stanley Moodrow series, he wrote two stand-alones, which are also included in today's release.
Finally, under the pen name of David Cray, Solomita wrote several more stand-alones, two of which are included here.
We're providing a list of all ten books below, with a synopsis from the first in Solomita's series titles.

A Twist of the Knife
Stephen Solomita
A Stanley Moodrow Mystery (1st)
A hard-nosed cop tears into the criminal shadow world of the Lower East Side …
On the streets of downtown Manhattan, there is no better disguise than the vacant stare and limp slouch of the junkie. Masquerading as an addict, Johnny Katanos goes undetected as he slithers up the fire escape towards the biggest heroin operation in the city of New York. He disables the alarms, distracts the guards, kills the Dobermans, and is waiting with a grenade when Ronald Jefferson Chadwick, drug kingpin, returns with a suitcase full of cash. A few minutes later, the money is gone, Chadwick is dead, and the factory has been reduced to a fireball.
Though the New York Police Department rarely investigates a dealer's death, a Russian-made grenade appearing downtown is cause for fear. The case falls to Stanley Moodrow, a beefy detective who knows that in an investigation like this, there's no time to go by the book.
