‘All right’ Stick said. ‘you tell me. What’s the best way to make a lot of money fast? Without working, that is.’ Frank held up the palm of his hand, his elbow on the edge of the bar. ‘You ready for this?’ ‘I’m ready.’ ‘Armed robbery.’ ‘Big deal.’ ‘Stick…I’m talking about simple everyday armed robbery. Supermarkets, bars, liquor stores, gas stations, that kind of place. Now, you ready for this? I see how two guys who now what they’re doing and’re businesslike about it’ – he paused, grinning a little – ‘who’re frank with each other and earnest about their work can pull down three to five grand a week.’ ‘You can also pull ten to a quarter in Jackson,’ Stick said. And so begins the partnership of Ernest Stickley, known to his friends as Stick, and Frank Ryan. Armed not only with handguns, but with Frank’s ten rules for success and happiness. Stick and Frank enjoy success and the swag mounts up until, inevitably, the rules begin to be broken.

It is sixteen years since the Dominican revolution, but for ex-Marine George Moran the carefully preserved memory of an exquisite female sniper inexorably draws him back from Miami to the alien killing-ground. Rather than the paradise he had looked for, he finds a world of intrigue, double-dealing and ruthless murder – but also a woman worth fighting for.

Publisher: Bantam Audio
Published: 1991
ISBN: 0553452878
Bestselling crime writer Elmore Leonard’s explosive plotting and snappy dialogue find their perfect showcase in this spellbinding three-hour abridgment performed by Brian Dennehy. In Palm Beach Country, Florida, someone places a live ten-foot alligator in the backyard of the bigoted, redneck judge Bob Gibbs – known to all as Maximum Bob – and his wife, Leanne, a former Weeki Wachee mermaid. Not long after that, shots are fired into the judge’s house. It doesn’t take much figuring to conclude that someone’s out to get him and that the malefactor won’t stoip at the second try. There’s a ling list of suspects: Dale Crowe, who just got an outrageous sentence for a minor crime; his uncle Elvin, a killer on parole, raring to again; Dr. Tommy Casco, the drugged out former medical doctor; and Dicky Campau, who poaches alligators for a living. Somehow probation officer Kathy Baker finds herself in the middle of all this. She’s got to avoid two seducers – the judge and a homicidal maniac – and work with a young cop who interests her for more than professional reasons. Trying to pick out the would-be-assassin, among this assortment of bad guys, sociopaths, and punks is pure entertainment – as only Elmore Leonard, with his sharp ear and eye for the lowlife, can provide.

Ordell Robbie, A vicious Palm Beach gunrunner, looks to retire with a million in the bank. Louis Gara, an antsy ex-con, wants nothing more than to keep his nose clean. Max Cherry, bail bondsman, aches for something like action. And Jackie Burke, a stewardess and smuggler’s mule, schemes to keep her fine-at-forty tail out of jail. Add in the holdup of a neo-Nazi headquarters, a classic Mutt-and-Jeff pair of lawmen, more high-tech weaponry than a Tom Clancy novel and $550,000 that everyone thinks should go in his own hip pocket and you have Rum Punch.

Max is hooked on Jackie from the first time he sees her. But when he meets Ordell, he has quite a different reaction. Nineteen years a bail bondsman, Max knows trouble when he sees it. Wanting to stay near Jackie, he allows himself to be drawn into her plan to play the feds off against the bad guys and walk off with Ordell’s money. As for Ordell, he’s making it now, after years of busted deals. No one is going to stand in the way of his million-dollar payoff…

The feds want Miami bookmaker Harry Arno to squeal on his wiseguy boss. So they’re putting word out on the street that Arno’s skimming profits from “Jimmy Cap” Capotorto – which he is, but everybody does it. He was planning to retire to Italy someday anyway, so Harry figures now’s a good time to get lost. U.S. Marshal Raylan Givens knows Harry’s tricky – the bookie ditched him once in an airport while in the marshal’s custody – but not careful. So Raylan’s determined to find the fugitive’s Italian hideaway before a cold-blooded Sicilian “Zip” does and whacks Arno for fun. After all, it’s a “pride thing”…and it might even put Raylan in good stead with Harry’s sexy ex-stripper girlfriend Joyce.

Roommates Kelly and Chloe are enjoying their lives and their downtown Detroit loft just fine. Kelly is a Victoria’s Secret catalog model. Chloe is an escort, until she decides to ditch her varied clientele in favor of a steady gig as girlfriend to eighty-four-year-old retired lawyer Tony Paradiso, a.k.a. Mr. Paradise. Evenings at Mr. Paradise’s house, there’s always an old Michigan football game on TV. And when Chloe’s around, there’s a cheerleader, too, complete with pleated skirt and blue-and-gold pompoms. One night Chloe convinces Kelly to join in the fun, along with Montez Taylor, Tony’s smooth-talking right-hand man. But things go awry and before the end of the evening there will be two corpses, two angry hit men, one switch of identity, a safe-deposit box full of loot up for grabs, and, fast on the scene, detective Frank Delsa, who now has a double homicide — and a beautiful, willful witness — to add to his already heavy caseload.
