Backflash - A Parker Novel

Informationen zum Autor Richard Stark was one of the many pseudonyms of Donald E. Westlake (1933-2008), a prolific author of crime fiction. In 1993, the Mystery Writers of America bestowed the society's highest honor on Westlake, naming him a Grand Master. Klappentext An action-packed novel starring Parker, the heister starring in the forthcoming Shane Black film Play Dirty ! Parker's got a couple of rules that have helped keep him alive throughout his long career. One of those is never to work on a boat. But with a gambling boat cruising down the Hudson, stuffed to the gunwales with cash, Parker's got a plan, a team, and a new rule: a shot at a big enough score makes any rule worth breaking. Parker and his crew hit the boat, hard, but as always, there are a lot of complications--and a lot of bodies--before this one's in the bag. Zusammenfassung Knocking over a highly lucrative religious revival show! Parker reminds us that not all criminals don ski masks - some prefer to hide behind the wings of fallen angels. Backflash followed soon after! and it found Parker checking out the scene on a Hudson River gambling boat. Parker's no fan of either relaxation or risk.
