Dirty Money

Master thief Parker is back and events continue from the events in the last Parker outing, [b:Ask The Parrot 209198 Ask the Parrot Richard Stark http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1172699196s/209198.jpg 3847]. From that story, Parker and the surviving accomplices had to leave two million in marked bills stashed in an abandoned church in Western Massachusetts. Now one of those accomplices has escaped from police custody and Parker wants to get that money before he does. But the town is crawling with cops and wanted posters are cropping up with Parker's likeness on them. Of course, that's not the only complications.This is my twelfth Parker novel and they're short, briskly paced tales with a body count. Richard Stark is the name Donald Westlake uses for his lean, mean Parker tales. This one is the latest one published and it's a good one.
