Reviews
On Mar 13 2020, a reader said:
Ex-FBI agent Philip Ryker became involved because he wanted to, even though it might cost him his life....Such is the character Frank Gruber has created for this strange and exotic tale involving an impoverished Spanish Count, his gorgeous daughter who wanted to fall in love but only with a rich enough man; a continually hot under the collar duke who maintains a torture chamber in his dungeon; a nosy German journalist who shows up seemingly out of the blue, and a bank robbery in California. How all of these tie together make for one fine book by the master of suspense and action, Frank Gruber.

About 2nd Impression Books
2nd Impression Books is an online only store simply because, as a gentleman in New York phrased it a while back, "The Rent is Too Damn High!". Eventually, all 2,000+ titles will make their way on to the site. While we don't specialize in one particular area, unless you count what intrigues us as an area, you will find a good amount of books into film, modern first editions, selected children's books and sports sprinkled in among many others. We appreciate your patience, and hope you check back often.
