“Tough-guy narrator Richard Ferrone finds Dead Street right up his alley. Ferrone seems to magnify Spillane’s words, presenting characters and circumstances in a pace, tone, and style uniquely fitting for each. Teaming up Spillane and Ferrone makes this Hard Case crime novel a fitting tribute to the lifelong body of work by this bestselling author.” AudioFile

“This is a more sentimental Spillane than readers might expect, but the women are still dolls, the bad guys are still louses, and the hero still packs a helluva punch (along with his trusty .45, natch). Spillane always said he wrote for his fans, not for the critics, but both should be pleased with this late addition to the writer's canon.” Publishers Weekly
“The many Spillane fans out there have a lot to look forward to.” Library Journal
