Richard Stark

The hunter becomes prey, as a heist goes sour and Parker finds himself trapped in a shuttered amusement park, besieged by a bevy of local mobsters. There are no exits from Fun Island. Outnumbered and outgunned, Parker can’t afford a single miscalculation. He’s low on bullets-but, as anyone who’s crossed his path knows, that definitely doesn’t mean he’s defenseless.

Nobody tops Stark in his objective portrayals of a world of total amorality. -New York Times

Energy and imagination light up virtually every page, as does some of the best hard-boiled prose ever to grace the noir genre. -Publishers Weekly
