About this product
Product Information
Many imitate him but none can touch him. He's set the standard against which all other crime novels are measured. His signature is vise-tightening suspense, crackling dialogue, and deadeye wit. And now, in Riding The Rap, Elmore Leonard proves once again that he is "the greatest living writer of crime fiction." (The New York Times) Raylan Givens, U.S. Marshal, is working on Warrants, bringing in fugitive felons, when Harry Arno disappears again and Raylan feels obliged to find him. This time with misgivings. Raylan believes Harry has dropped out of site to get attention and win back his former lover, Joyce, who had fallen into Raylan's arms, but now seems concerned only with Harry's welfare. The last person to see Harry is a nifty young psychic--certified medium and spiritualist--named Dawn Navarro. As soon as Raylan talks to her he senses that Harry has very likely beenkidnapped and Dawn is involved. Cut to the bad guys. Chip Ganz describes his idea, a way to make millions, as "taking hostages." Not unlike the way it was done in Lebanon, but this time for profit. Does he mean kidnapping? "In a way," Chip tells his ex-con accomplice, Louis Lewis and Bobby Deo, "only different. A lot different." It's the victim who has to come up with a way to pay the ransom. "It had better be the best idea you've ever had," Chip tells Harry, blindfolded and in chains. "Because if we don't like it, you're dead." In time Raylan's pretty sure he knows where Harry is being held, but doesn't have "probable cause" to get a warrant and gain entry. As he closes in, though, Chip's hostage plan begins to come apart and the scene is set for a showdown--one of the best you'll ever see.

"Riding the Rapmade me feel like a kid again. Kept me up until four in the morning. When Elmore Leonard's people start talking, I can't help myself, I have to listen."--Lawrence Block "Leonard gets better and better. He makes the rest of us mystery writers green with envy."--Tony Hillerman "Elmore Leonard is a distinctive American artist, the way our great jazz musicians are. He proves once again with Riding the Rapthat there is still his sound, and then everybody else's."--Mike Lupica"Riding the Rap is the work of an old master--it's taut, fierce and mesmerizing."--Stephen Hunter "Another masterpiece from the master...Leonard's never been better. This is the novel of the year."--James Crumley
