“[Quarry] still operates at a more ruthless clip than almost anyone
he encounters. This is a sure-footed ending to a series that
marinated in the excesses of pure pulp.”—New York Times
"Smoothly written and fast paced"—Deadly Pleasures
"Any fan of paperback-spinner noir, with plenty
of blood spatter seasoned with a little interpersonal
complexity, will have no trouble getting acclimated." -
Booklist
"Easy listening for readers whose preferred soundtrack is muffled
gunfire." - Kirkus Reviews
"A gripping fast-paced epilogue and so much fun ... This is one of
the best Quarry books ever." - Pulp Fiction Review
"A nostalgia fix and incredibly fresh and up-to-date, catching up
with Quarry pushing 70 in a post-COVID existence ...a serving of
more of that gritty tone and realism Collins fans will be
accustomed to reading, with doses of violence and sleaze and sex
typical of the series." - Borg
