MS. TREE Volume 4 Deadline

From author Max Allen Collins and artist Terry Beatty, come five more classic Ms Tree stories. Join Michael Tree, the 6ft, 9mm-carrying private detective on her thrilling adventures -- she doesn't hesitate to send killers straight to hell. No case is too small, no violence too extreme, just as long as it gets the job done. New introduction by Collins (Road to Perdition). As Max explains in his introduction, his is hard-boiled crime fiction. When soldiers were returning from World War II, this was the kind of story selling to them in both comics and paperback novels, from the likes of Mickey Spillane (Mike Hammer), Michael Shayne novels, and even the first James Bond novels. Ms. Tree just happens to be a beautiful woman without a license to kill...but that doesn't stop her. Her husband was gunned down by hoodlums and she's out to even the score and then some. Includes a bonus first chapter (prose) of Collin's novel Deadly Beloved. "Ideal for anyone who loves a bit of throwback hardboiled pulp." - Crime Fiction Lover
