"Elmore Leonard can write circles around almost anybody active in the crime novel today." --New York Times Book Review With more than forty novels to his credit and still going strong, the legendary Elmore Leonard has well earned the title, "America's greatest crime writer" (Newsweek). And U.S. Marshal Raylan Givens (Pronto, Riding the Rap, Fire in the Hole) is one of Leonard's most popular creations, thanks in part to the phenomenal success of the hit TV series "Justified." Leonard's Raylan shines a spotlight once again on the dedicated, if somewhat trigger-happy lawman, this time in his familiar but not particularly cozy milieu of Harlan County, Kentucky, where the drug dealing Crowe brothers are branching out into the human body parts business. Suspenseful, darkly wry and riveting, and crackling with Leonard's trademark electric dialogue, Raylan is prime Grand Master Leonard as you have always loved him and always will.

Rezensionen

Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung - Rezension
Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung

Bücher Er ist inzwischen 87, wirkt nach mehr als vierzig Romanen kein bisschen müde, und sein Held, dem der Revolver locker sitzt, würde vermutlich sofort ziehen, wenn man "Raylan" (Suhrkamp, 19,95 Euro) mit diesem deutschen Spießerbegriff einen "Krimi" nennen würde. Nur weil in Elmore Leonards Roman ein Marshal ermittelt, weil in Kentucky viel Dope an- und wenig Kohle abgebaut wird und auch noch eine Krankenschwester mit Spendernieren handelt, geht es nicht zu wie beim "Tatort". Allerdings hat Leonard diesmal ein paar Handlungsfäden zu viel verknüpfen wollen. Doch selbst ein etwas schwächeres Leonard-Buch lohnt unbedingt die Lektüre.

Leonard's dizzyingly economical style, packed with information and never wasting a word, continues apace in this unusual case. SUNDAY HERALD 20130217
