"..it’s that very familiar bone-jarring violence, nonstop action, and hard-boiled sarcastic ripostes....a vicarious thrill ride down Memory Lane, back to a time when justice and mercy were a lot less easy to come by and more arbitrary." - New York Journal of Books"KILLING TOWN has all of the elements that made Spillane and Hammer the multimedia icons of the mid-20th century and beyond. It is strongly recommended as Exhibit A for how the job of writing the hard-boiled detective novel is fittingly and properly done." - Book Reporter"an electrifying read" -- San Francisco Book Review - 4-star review "All the raw power and violence of I, the Jury are on display in Killing Town. This never before published “first draft” of Mike Hammer takes the reader on high-octane joy ride. My head is still spinning! GRADE: A-" - George Kelley
