Synopsis
A rip-roaring caper novel by bestselling crime author Elmore Leonard
Ordell and Louis have picked the wrong woman to kidnap…
They thought it would be easy money. Snatch the wife of a rich Detroit businessman and demand a nice big ransom. What they didn’t reckon on was the fact that her husband has a secret mistress and doesn’t want his wife back at all. Or that their victim, Margaret ‘Mickey’ Dawson, is more than a little tired of playing the perfect housewife. So tired, in fact, that she’s out for revenge, and willing to turn the tables on everyone to get it.

About the Author
Elmore Leonard (1925―2013) began his long and extraordinary career as a writer of Westerns, most famously a story which was made into the film 3:10 To Yuma. He then became known for his remarkable sequence of crime novels, generally set in Michigan or Florida. A master of funny and threatening dialogue, his influence has been incalculable. Leonard received the Lifetime Achievement Award from PEN US and the Grand Master Award from the Mystery Writers of America.
