Advance Praise: Sterling Watson

Sterling Watson

“With a plot that winds up like a Swiss watch and then explodes like an RPG, Bradley Spinelli’s The Painted Gun pays off in every way a reader of noir fiction wants it to, and provides a lovely bonus—some of the most sure-footed tough guy prose I’ve seen since Hammett and Chandler walked those mean streets. Spinelli’s novel pays homage to the conventions of detective fiction while also spinning an original and terrifying web of violence, menace, and intrigue. A bravura performance by a writer of marvelous gifts.”
—Sterling Watson, author of Suitcase City
