And the `50s  ambience if just right." - Ed Gorman"It’s Mad Men meets Mickey Spillane." - Mystery People"CUT ME IN is a required addition to the library of any Ed McBain fan. Once again, Hard Case Crime has shown why they do essential work. It is easy to imagine these books lost forever without Charles Ardai searching them out." - Book Reporter“The noir badassery on display here is hardcore” - Comic Book Resources“Some writers know how to suck you right in from the first page.  Take the late author Evan Hunter aka Ed McBain.” -  Borg.com"Highly recommended." - Gloria Feit"a fast moving, taut thriller ... - Pulp Fiction Reviews
