"Quarry is a classic hardboiled character: tough, smart, and
dangerous. The plot was lean and hard and the character wry and
charming. Collins is a worthy successor to Raymond Chandler and
Mickey Spillane, and Quarry may be his best character. I enjoyed
this book enough that I plan on tracking down the other Quarry
novels, so obviously this is highly recommended." - Fandom
