From the Back Cover
Praise for Mitchell Bartoy and The Devil's Own Rag Doll
"Mitchell Bartoy's The Devil's Own Rag Doll is a first novel that's so accomplished it feels more discovered than written, as if it had turned up in the files of Black Mask magazine, a lost good book by one of the early hard-boiled pros. There's not a false or dishonest note in this knockout debut novel that's both superb social history and cop-noir with intelligence and heart."
--Washington Post
"Bartoy starts swinging from his heels on page one and never lets up throughout this relentlessly hard-boiled first novel. Bartoy gets the 1940s mood just right, and he sure knows how to throw a punch. Once he learns to box, he could be a contender."
--Booklist
"An impressive debut that will appeal to devotees of gritty crime fiction."
--Library Journal (starred review)
"The depth and sincerity that shine through . . . make this a promising debut."
--Kirkus Reviews
