The robbery was a piece of cake. The getaway was clean. And seven men were safely holed up in different places while Parker held all the cash. But somehow the sweet heist of a college football game
turns sour, Parker’s woman is murdered, and the take is stolen. Now Parker’s looking for the lowlife who did him dirty, while the cops are looking for seven clever thieves—and Parker must outrun
them all. When hunters and hunted meet, some win, some lose.

Editorial Reviews
“Stark’s novel is a classic noir crime thriller (replete with complex double-crosses within double-crosses)…[A] thrilling game of cat and mouse.” —Publishers Weekly
“I wouldn’t care to speculate about what it is in [Stark’s] psyche that makes him so good at writing about Parker, much less what it is that makes me like the Parker novels so much. Suffice it to say that Stark is the cleanest of all noir novelists, a styleless stylist who gets to the point with stupendous economy, hustling you down the path of plot so briskly that you have to read his books a second time to appreciate the elegance and sober wit with which they are written.” —Terry Teachout, New York Times bestselling author
Donald E. Westlake (1933–2008) wrote dozens of novels under his own name and numerous pseudonyms, including Richard Stark and Alan Marshall. Many of his books have been adapted for film,
most notably The Hunter, which became the 1967 noir Point Blank and the 1999 smash hit Payback.
