KILLSHOT

A series of bizarre events thrusts a blue-collar couple into the dangerous world of small-time hoods. The work is quintessential Leonard, especially in its detailed description of the criminal mind, both professional and amateur. Bruce Boxleitner's narration is sharp and compelling. The voice he assumes for the middle-aged wife is a bit too self-aware at time. But otherwise the reader shifts between characters adroitly and gives the story good treatment.
