The black widow of detective fiction returns in this third volume of classic Ms Tree stories by the award-winning writer Max Allan Collins. Join Ms Michael Tree, the 6ft, 9mm-carrying private eye through her thrilling casebook following the death of her husband on their wedding night. No case is too small, no violence is too extreme - just as long as it gets the job done.
Praise for Ms Tree:
"For those who prefer their comics a little harder, a little faster, and a whole lot pulpier … hit[s] the bullseye and blows it to pieces." - Mystery Scene
"A saga rife with treachery, violence, and intrigue... a 'must-read' for mystery graphic novel connoisseurs." - Midwest Book Review
