"You kill a lawman," he said, "you're in another zone. McWitney and I are going to have to work this out." "But not on the phone." Parker yawned. "Nothing on the phone ever," he said. "Except pizza." This wraps up the saga begun in Nobody Runs Forever when Parker and his cohorts were forced to hide their take of cash (marked, or "dirty") in an abandoned church in the woods. Now Parker has a fence for the cash, and wants to go back for it. But there is bounty hunter and the FBI on his tail, along with local cops. Claire plays a larger role than usual. Laura Lippman, best-selling author of the Tess Monaghan series (married to David Simon) has written a terrific new foreword.
