Nobody Runs Forever
By Richard Stark & Duane SwierczynskiPublisher Description
“Lots of bleak fun . . . This stellar series just gets better and better.” —Publishers Weekly (starred review)
The saga begins with a poker game gone lethally awry. When Parker goes in on a messy scam—stealing an armored car—with someone he barely knows, as usual the amateurs get in the way of the job. From a nervous ex-con and his well-intentioned sister to a bank manager’s two-timing wife and a beautiful, relentless cop, too many people have their hands too close to Parker’s pie. Even when he sees the job turning bad, he can’t let go of the score—and there just might be nowhere left to run . . .
“Another thrill ride worth staying up all night and calling in sick tomorrow morning for.” ?Austin Chronicle
“The shrewdest sociopath this side of Tom Ripley . . . a great hard-boiled series.” —Booklist
