Comeback: A Parker Novel, Paperback

Descriere

After the bloodbath of Butcher's Moon, the action-filled blowout Parker adventure, Donald Westlake said, ``Richard Stark proved to me that he had a life of his own by simply disappearing. He was gone.`` And for nearly twenty-five years, he stayed away, while readers waited. But nothing bad is truly gone forever, and Parker's as bad as they come. According to Westlake, one day in 1997, ``suddenly, he came back from the dead, with a chalky prison pallor``--and the resulting novel, Comeback, showed that neither Stark nor Parker had lost a single step. 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.
