Legendary New York Times bestselling author Elmore Leonard
returns with three of his favorite characters: Jack Foley
from Out of Sight, Cundo Rey from LaBrava, and Dawn Navarro
from Riding the Rap.
Jack Foley, the charming bank robber from Out of Sight, is
serving a thirty-year sentence in a Miami penitentiary, but
he's made an unlikely friend on the inside who just might be
able to do something about that. Fellow inmate Cundo Rey, an
extremely wealthy Cuban criminal, arranges for Foley's
sentence to be reduced from thirty years to three months,
and when Jack is released just two weeks ahead of Cundo, he
agrees to wait for him in Venice Beach, California.
Also waiting for Cundo is his common-law wife, Dawn Navarro,
a professional psychic with a slightly ulterior motive for
staying with Cundo: namely, she wants his money. And with
the arrival of Jack, she sees the perfect partner in a plan
to relieve Cundo of his fortune. Cundo may be Jack's friend,
but does that mean he can trust him? And can either of them
trust Dawn?
Road Dogs is Elmore Leonard at his best—with his trademark
tight plotting and pitch-perfect dialogue—and readers will
love seeing Cundo, Jack, and Dawn back in action and working
together . . . or are they?
