Clement Mansell knows how easy it is to get away with murder. The cool killer is already back on the Detroit scene thanks to some nifty courtroom moves by his lawyer and he's feeling invincible enough to execute a crooked judge on a whim. Lieutenant Raymond Cruz thinks the Oklahoma Wildman crossed the line long before this latest outrage, and he's determined to see that the hayseed psycho meets an end he deserves, with a gun pointed at him. But that means a good cop, having to play somewhat fast and loose with the rules . . . in order to maneuver Mansell into a wild Midwest showdown that he can't walk away from. "

From New York Times Bestselling Author Elmore Leonard come two of his early, beloved westerns-now collected in one volume

GUNSIGHTS

Together, Brendan Early and Dana Moon have tracked down Apaches and gunned down scalp hunters to become Arizona legends. But now they find themselves fierce adversaries in what newspapers are calling The Rincon Mountain War. Brendan and a gang of mining company gun thugs are dead set on running Dana and the "People of the Mountain" from their land. Which of these former friends-turned-foes will triumph in the end?

FORTY LASHES LESS ONE

The hell called Yuma Territorial Prison can destroy the soul of any man. It's worse for those whose damning crime is the color of their skin. The law says Chiricahua Apache Raymond San Carlos and former black soldier Harold Jackson are murderers, and they'll stay behind bars until they're dead and rotting. But even in the worst place on Earth, there's hope. Now for two detested inmates--first enemies, then allies by necessity--their chance at salvation waits at the end of a mad, violent contest . . . on a bloody trail that winds toward Arizona's five most dangerous men.

Описание:

In this superb short fiction collection, Elmore Leonard, "the greatest crime writer of our time, perhaps ever" ("New York Times Book Review"), once again illustrates how the line between the law and the lawbreakers is not as firm as we might think. In the title story, the basis for the hit FX series "Justified," U.S. Marshal Raylan Givens meets up with an old friend, but they're now on different sides of the law. Federal marshal Karen Sisco, from "Out of Sight," returns in "Karen Makes Out," once again inadvertently mixing pleasure with business. In "When the Women Come Out to Dance," Mrs. Mahmood gets more than she bargains for when she conspires with her maid to end her unhappy marriage.

These nine stories are the great Elmore Leonard at his vivid, hilarious, and unfailingly human best.

A little beauty of a story.A hot, fast read with pungent characters.
Los Angeles Times

A slam-bang, no-bull action thrillerand nobody but nobody writes better dialogue.
New York Daily News

Its an established fact: Elmore Leonard is the uncontested master of the crime thriller (Washington Post ) who does crime fiction better than anyone (Cleveland Plain Dealer), and nowhere is this more obvious than in the pages of Stick.

One of his most acclaimed noir masterworks, it is the story of ex-con Ernest Stick Stickley whos nudged from the straight-and-narrow path when a big time drug dealer randomly selects him to die and a perfect revenge/payday opportunity presents itself. The author of Raylan, featuring U.S. Marshal Raylan Givens, the sometimes trigger-happy protagonist of TVs Justified, Leonard is indeed the king, holding court with the best of the best, including Coban and Connally, and the late great John D.

MacDonald, Dashiell Hammett, James M. Cain, and Robert B. Parker.
