Learn moreMaster 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.
Richard Starkย (1933โ2008), wrote dozens of novels under his own name and a rainbow of other pseudonyms. Many of his books have been adapted for film, most notably The Hunter, which became the 1967 noir Point Blankย and the 1999 smash Payback.
Stephen R. Thorne, winner of multiple AudioFile Earphones Awards for narration, is a professional actor and member of the resident acting company at Providenceโs esteemed Trinity Repertory Company, where he has played Hamlet, Henry V, and Tom Joad.

โEntertainingโฆStark handles the criminal aspects of his tale with his usual panache.โ
โNarrator Stephen Thorne provides an engaging narration with his smooth deliveryโฆAn entertaining listening experience.โ
โThe 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.โ
โStark, Donald E. Westlakeโs more bad-tempered alter ego, breaks his usual rule and gives womenโballsy Sandra and dispassionate Claireโmajor roles. Not that Parker takes a back seat for a minute. The man is fiercely conceived, one mean piece of work.โ
