That's not going to last long.\u003c\/b\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eRichard Stark's Parker novels are the hardest of hard-boiled, classic crime novels where the heists are huge, the body counts are high, and the bad guys usually win. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe Parker novels have been a huge influence on countless writers and filmmakers, including Quentin Tarantino, Stephen King, George Pelecanos, Colson Whitehead, Lucy Sante, John Banville, and many more. Their stripped-down language and hard-as-nails amorality create an unforgettable world where the next score could be the big one, but your next mistake could also be your last. There's nothing else like them. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eWith Parker locked up and about to be unmasked, \u003ci\u003eBreakout\u003c\/i\u003e follows his Houdini-like escape from prison with a team of convicts. But when a new heist and new dangers--con artists, snitches, busybodies, eccentrics, and cops--loom among the dark alleys and old stone buildings of the big city to which they've fled, Parker soon learns that not all prisons have bars. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe Parker novels are pure artistry, adrenaline, and logic both brutal and brilliant. Join Parker on his jobs and read them all again or for the first time. Just don't talk to the law.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eRichard Stark\u003c\/b\u003e was one of the many pseudonyms of Donald E.
