What to expect

Master criminal Parker takes another turn for the worse as he tries to recover loot from a heist gone terribly wrong. Parker and two cohorts stole the assets of a bank in transit, but the police heat was so great they could only escape if they left the money behind. Now Parker and his associates plot to reclaim the loot, which they hid in the choir loft of an unused country church. As they implement the plan, people on both sides of the law use the forces at their command to stop Parker and grab the goods for themselves. Though Parker's new getaway van is an old Ford Econoline with "Holy Redeemer Choir" on its doors, his gang is anything but holy, and Parker will do whatever it takes to redeem his prize, no matter who gets hurt in the process.

Critics Review

“Entertaining…Stark handles the criminal aspects of his tale with his usual panache.”

Publishers Weekly

“Narrator
Stephen Thorne provides an engaging narration with his smooth delivery…An entertaining listening experience.”

AudioFile

“The hard-edged Parker is as resolute and dangerous
as ever, and the faithful will stand beside him through every step of
this typically involved and entertaining novel.”

Booklist

“Stark, Donald E. Westlake’s more bad-tempered alter ego, breaks his
usual rule and gives women—ballsy Sandra and dispassionate Claire—major
roles. Not that Parker takes a back seat for a minute. The man is
fiercely conceived, one mean piece of work.”
