The Big Bounce: A Novel <p>“The greatest crime writer of our time, perhaps ever!”<br />—<em>New York Times Book Review</em></p><p>When the all-time greats of mystery/noir/crime fiction are mentioned (John D. MacDonald, Dashiell Hammett, James M. Cain, Robert Parker, etc.), Elmore Leonard’s name invariably tops the list. A true Leonard classic, <em>The Big Bounce</em> showcases all of the Grand Master’s acclaimed skills—twisty plotting, unforgettable characters, dialogue so razor sharp it could draw blood—as he chronicles the misadventures of a larcenous young man in a Michigan resort town who’s irresistibly drawn to a dangerous femme fatale, a rich man’s plaything, and the nasty little caper they plan to pull off together—if they can somehow manage to survive each other. The acclaimed creator of <em>Raylan</em> (aka U.S. Marshal Raylan Givens, lately of TV’s smash hit <em>Justified</em>), Leonard has never lost the mojo that makes him “the King Daddy of crime writers” (<em>Seattle Times</em>).<br /></p>
