I haven't read this so can't help with your question - just wanted to say that I really, really hate it when the cover art doesn't match the story in some way!
Not that I recall, but yes, the Garrett PI books are consistently excellent.
In some ways the Garrett books sort of acted as a precursor not just to the genre-mixing of Bledsoe, but hints of what some of the better Urban Fantasy would be. The first books were the best, as much for the world building as for the character.
No, there are no guns in Garrett's world. Just Hildebrandt (the artist) taking some liberties. Interestingly, the rest of the cover is pretty faithful to the book (especially the sloppily hand-painted lettering on the window.)
No there are not. The uzi's are what stopped me from buying the book 25 years ago. I have recently finished reading all the Garrett books and I love them. Glen Cook is the Best!!!!
