Beschreibung:

A rip-roaring caper novel by bestselling crime author Elmore Leonard

'This chaotic, blackly comic story is carried aloft on Leonard's cool, easy prose' - The Observer

Ordell and Louis have picked the wrong woman to kidnap...

They thought it would be easy money. Snatch the wife of a rich Detroit businessman and demand a nice big ransom. What they didn't reckon on was the fact that her husband has a secret mistress and doesn't want his wife back at all. Or that their victim, Margaret 'Mickey' Dawson, is more than a little tired of playing the perfect housewife. So tired, in fact, that she's out for revenge, and willing to turn the tables on everyone to get it.

Über die Urheberinnen:

Elmore Leonard (1925-2013) began his long and extraordinary career as a writer of Westerns, most famously a story which was made into the film 3:10 To Yuma. He then became known for his remarkable sequence of crime novels, generally set in Michigan or Florida. A master of funny and threatening dialogue, his influence has been incalculable.
