I'm trying to get caught up with Elmore Leonard's novels. This one is a lean mean tale featuring U.S. Marshall Raylen Givens and bookie Harry Arno. The feds make trouble for Arno and his boss wants him dead. Arno runs to Italy in Ezra Pound's old neigborhood and Givens decides to go after him. A satisifying story.
Published in paperback by Dell.
A good read but nowhere near his best. I happened to just come back from Rapallo and the book did not get me back...
