JUDGMENT
 UDGMENT is the classic action/adventure novel that was a runaway paperback sensation in the 1980s...and that skyrocketed the career of Lee Goldberg, best-selling author of THE WALK, the MR. MONK novels, and THE DEAD MAN...
Brett Macklin was a freewheeling son of sunny California, a collector of vintage cars and a connoisseur of beautiful women. But when his father is murdered by a street gang, Macklin becomes something else—a deadly weapon against crime, a relentless vigilante who won't stop until he's wiped out the killers who have turned Los Angeles into a war zone. (Originally published as the first book in the .357 Vigilante series, under the pen name Ian Ludlow.) Buy the ebook from Amazon.
PRAISE "JUDGMENT has an amped-up, neon-bright, 'burning rubber down the main drag doing sixty while blaring Motley Crue so loud you can't even think' sort of quality. And that's how I like it." —Post-Modern Pulps "Generous helpings of sex and violent action, along with some smart-aleck dialog. But if you're a fan of Robert B. Parker, Dirty Harry, or the Die Hard movies, you'll have a very good time." —J.A Konrath, author of THE LIST and AFRAID
ADJOURNED
he second, action-packed book in the JURY SERIES saga. After a family tragedy, Brett Macklin has sworn to take the law into his own hands and make the guilty pay. This time, Macklin's target is Wesley Saputo, porn kingpin and murderer, who has slipped through the courts time after time, only to kidnap, rape and kill again...and again. Macklin's mission: locate and destroy Saputo before he finds another innocent life to destroy.
(Originally published as Make Them Pay, the second book in the .357 Vigilante series, under the pen name Ian Ludlow.) Buy the ebook from Amazon.
PRAISE "Lee Goldberg is well-known for his novels about Monk, the obsessive-compulsive detective, but years ago, when Goldberg was a college student, he was already making his mark as a writer, albeit under a pen name. These were the days when series books aimed at the men's market were showing up everywhere, and the ones by Goldberg, about a vigilante out to rid the world of scum, are still entertaining today. Fast-moving, filled with sex, violence, and snappy patter, these are just the thing for people who like expert storytelling and action-packed escapist novels. Check 'em out." —Bill Crider, author of OUTRAGE AT BLANCO
PAYBACK
he third, red-hot book in the action-packed JURY SERIES saga. A sadist with a hunger for victims is stalking the streets of Los Angeles—leaving a trail of destruction which threatens to engulf the city in racial violence. And he's calling himself...Mr. Jury. Now vigilante Brett Macklin, the real Mr. Jury, is hitting the killing ground with just seventy hours to hunt down the deadly impostor and clear his name. All he has to do is take on an army of fanatical white supremacists, stop a news-hungry reporter from digging too deep into his past, and save a tough black cop from being buried alive. Time and luck are running out.
(Originally published in the 1980s as White Wash, the third book in the .357 Vigilante series under the pen name Ian Ludlow) Buy the ebook from Amazon.
PRAISE "This gritty, action-packed escapist yarn explodes straight out of the freewheeling 1980's, when Reagan was President, Farrah Fawcett was a superstar, and JURY SERIES author Lee Goldberg was still a teenager. But you'd never know his age from the sharp writing, wicked wit, wall-to-wall action, and over-the-top sex in the books. Okay, except for the sex, you'd never know. (If you've read Goldberg's Monk series, you know he brings humor to the scene of the crime). Some readers have complained about typos, but that must have been an earlier edition. This all-new edition is just fine. So click the buy button and have a ton of fun." —Paul Levine, bestselling author of SOLOMAN & LORD
GUILTY
he final, pulse-pounding book in the bloody, action-packed JURY SERIES. Brett Macklin faces his greatest adversary yet—a ruthless, professional hit woman, seductress and master of disguise who launches a campaign of terror and bloodshed against him, pushing the vigilante to the emotional and physical breaking point, unleashing a bloody killstorm on the L.A. streets.
This is the fourth and final book in the series, never before published in print, caught up in the bankruptcy of Pinnacle Books, the original publisher. For decades, it was considered "lost" and coveted by fans of the men's action adventure genre...before it was finally found and, at long last, published as an ebook. (This book was previously released on the Kindle under its original title, .357 Vigilante #4: Killstrom) Buy the ebook from Amazon.
PRAISE "Lee Goldberg's THE JURY SERIES serves vengeance hot with loads of action and plenty of suspense to keep you turning the e-pages. Vigilante justice was never so much fun." —Joel Goldman, bestselling author of MOTION TO KILL "If you long for the days when the drugstore book racks were filled with men's adventure series like The Executioner, The Destroyer, The Marksman, The Butcher, The Penetrator, and so many others—all but gone today—then Lee Goldberg's THE JURY SERIES books will take you back to a time when kick-ass action and kick ass heroes splatter their way across the pages of the paperback originals. Violence, sex, and more violence, THE JURY SERIES gives you all of this along with smart-aleck one-liners and dark humor. Buy the complete set, see what Dirty Harry on steroids would be like. Satisfaction guaranteed for action junkies." —Paul Bishop, author of CITADEL RUN and CHALK WHISPERS
