No one is Leonard's equal,-and anyone who might doubt it would only have to read Elmore Leonard's riveting noir classic, Unknown Man #89, to become a true believer. The twisty tale of a Detroit process server whose search for a missing stockholder leads him into more serious peril than he ever imagined possible, Unknown Man #89 is a gourmet stew of mystery, suspense, and double and triple cross, peppered with the razor sharp dialogue for which Grand Master Leonard is justifiably famous. Exhilarating old-school crime fiction that the late, great John D. MacDonald, Dashiell Hammett, James M. Cain, and Robert Parker would have been proud to call their own, Unknown Man #89 is a gem-nothing less than we'd expect from the man who created the incomparable U.S. Marshal Raylan Givens of the hit TV series Justified.… (más)

Detroit process server Jack Ryan has a reputation for finding men who don't want to be found. A string of seemingly unrelated crimes leads Ryan to the search for a missing stockholder known only as "unknown man #89," but his missing man isn't "unknown" to everyone: a pretty blonde hates his guts, and a very nasty dude named Virgil Royal wants him dead in the worst way. This is very unfortunate for Jack, who is suddenly caught in the crossfire of a lethal triple-cross and becomes as much a target as his nameless prey. Along the way, Ryan butts heads with local police, including six-shooter-carrying Dick Spee

a billion times better than the big bounce. though it’s hard to go wrong with a book with a character named Dick Speed. ( )

Another great book from Elmore Leonard. A continuation of the Jack Ryan character from "The Big Bounce". I wish everyone could write as good as Leonard. His books always have such a great flow. Also, the very last sentence gives the reader a little something to think about. ( )

Molto più di un noir, Leonard è sicuramente un grande autore e i suoi personaggi sono costruiti con grande maestria. ( )

Not my favorite Elmore Leonard book, too much talk about what being an alcoholic is like. While that might be interesting to some people, the descriptions went on and on and on. BUT, it was still Elmore Leonard and of course is above average, just not excellent. ( )
