(hb; 2018: fourth book in the Raylan Givens series)
From the inside flap
“Plato o plomo. These
are the last words Special Agent Frank Tyner hears before getting dealt the
business end of a .22 Sport King, a gift from known drug trafficker and
murderer, Jose Rindo. Nora Sanchez, to track down Rindo and bring him to
justice before he slips across the Mexican border. Further complicating things,
she’s got some unwanted help from the US Marshall fugitive task force—the kind
that’s quick on the trigger and always shoots to kill—in the form of recently
reassigned Deputy Marshall Raylan Givens. The duo follows Rindo’s bloody trail
through the dusty plains of the Midwest, across the deserts of Arizona and El
Centro, and deep into the heart of Mexico.”
Review
Set a few years after the events of the show Justified (2010-15) Peter Leonard’s Detroit maintains the same burn-through, tightly written, humor-, character- and violence-driven feel of his father’s previous Raylan Givens novels and stories, making this a worthwhile legacy read, one worth checking out.
