Quotes

“Quarry, the Maine sniper turned professional assassin who made his first fictional appeance in 1976, is pushing 70 and ready to retire—after one last job, that is. This is a surefooted ending to a series that marinated in the excesses of pure pulp.” New York Times Book Review

“Smoothly written and fast paced." Deadly Pleasures

“A gripping fast-paced epilogue and so much fun…This is one of the best Quarry books ever.” Pulp Fiction Review

“Easy listening for readers whose preferred soundtrack is muffled gunfire.” Kirkus Reviews

“Intriguing backstories, crafty revelatory connections, tongue-in-cheek humor, and blistering present-day battles make this entry sizzle. Noir fans will be sorry to see the last of Quarry.” Publishers Weekly
