Sixteenth Parker’s novel The Butcher’s Moon is more than twice as much as most owners’ adventures and is absolutely troubled by readers of action, violence and nerve-wracking tension. Back in the corrupt town, he lost his money, almost his whole life, at Slayground, Parker gathered a huge blowout job to get a huge blowout job: Start-End-A gang war. It feels like Parker’s novels end all Parker’s novels, and that’s nearly 25 years. Donald Westlake said after his 1974 publication, “Richard Stark proved to me that his life was just gone. He was gone.”
This classic Parker adventure classic adventure is worth mentioning on the bookshelf of any crime fan. It is a new introduction from Westlake’s close friend and writing partner Lawrence Block. More than thirty-five years later, the Butcher’s Moon is still fierce: keep it clear when picking up the calendar, because once you open it, you don’t want to do anything and just read the last shot.
