Description
Leonard, the man who gave us U.S. Marshal Raylan Givens (currently starring in TV’s Justified), is at his storytelling best as a spurned wife decides to take a rightful—and profitable—revenge on her deceiving husband by teaming up with the two thugs he hired to abduct her.
Dangerously eccentric characters, razor-sharp black humor, brilliant dialogue, and suspense all rolled into one tight package. This wry, twisting tale recalls the work of Dashiell Hammett, Raymond Chandler, John D. MacDonald, James M. Cain, and Robert Parker.
