Elmore Leonard is eternal. In Road Dogs, the PEN USA Lifetime Achievement Award winner and âAmericaâs greatest crime masterâ (Newsweek) brings back three of his favorite charactersâJack Foley from Out of Sight, Cundo Rey from La Brava, and Dawn Navarro from Riding the Rapâfor a twisting, explosive, always surprising masterwork of crime fiction the San Francisco Chronicle calls, âa sly, violent, funny and superbly written story of friendship, greed, and betrayal.âāļāļģāˇāļāˇ āļ´āˇāˇ āˇāļļāļŗ
Elmore Leonard wrote more than forty books during his long career, including the bestsellers Raylan, Tishomingo Blues, Be Cool, Get Shorty, and Rum Punch, as well as the acclaimed collection When the Women Come Out to Dance, which was a New York Times Notable Book. Many of his books have been made into movies, including Get Shorty and Out of Sight. The short story âFire in the Hole,â and three books, including Raylan, were the basis for the FX hit show Justified. Leonard received the Lifetime Achievement Award from PEN USA and the Grand Master Award from the Mystery Writers of America. He died in 2013.
