The ol' Slings & Arrows Guide says:
"Crime novelist Max Allen Collins is responsible for this hard-boiled detective strip, very much patterned after Mike Hammer but with a much greater emphasis on detection and mystery (as you might expect given the detective's name). Michael Tree's husband is a detective who's killed by the mob, specifically the Muerta family, and throughout the series her vendetta against them is a constant factor that provokes trouble with the law on several occasions. It culminates in an arrangement of sorts when Ms Tree's adopted son falls in love with Dominique Muerta's daughter and the two team up to rescue their kidnapped children. This running theme of vengeance helps maintain momentum in the strips, but doesn't distract from other, non-Mob-related cases that are often picked out as having a particular resonance at the time (crimes against children are a special bug-bear), and Collins regularly has to question Ms Tree's readiness to exact her own, lethal justice, even having her committed at one stage. Overall, an impressive series that's willing to tackle many different aspects of crime and punishment, always in an unsentimental but not detached manner. Terry Beatty's artwork is rather stiff and unexpressive but works well in context."
