Publisher Description
You Live Once, one of many classic novels from crime writer John D. MacDonald, the beloved author of Cape Fear and the Travis McGee series, is now available as an eBook.
Clint Sewell knows there probably isn’t a woman within fifty miles who would shed a tear if Mary Olan turned up dead—because there isn’t a husband around who hasn’t spent a night or two in Mary’s bed. The latest occupant is Clint’s boss. Joe’s a nice guy, sure, but he’s not above deceiving his wife . . . not above spreading rumors to cover up his sins . . . and maybe not above letting someone else take the fall when the unscrupulous Mary is found lifeless—with Clint Sewell’s belt around her lovely neck.
Features a new Introduction by Dean Koontz

Customer Reviews
You Live Once
Another fine tale by John D. His descriptions of action and people always amaze me, it’s like he was there.
Mr. Koontz however should be ashamed to let this mini tome be sold for $12.00. McDonald pretty much always satisfies in my thinking, as he did here, but if I would of known it was going to be the shortest story I ever read by Mr. McDonald, I would of reconsidered.
