Book details

Book description

The last time Florida motel owner George Moran was in the Dominican Republic he was in a uniform and people were shooting at him. Years later he's back looking for a girl he lost - and finding one he'd be better off without. But that doesn't matter to George while he's sleeping with beautiful Mary de Boya - only when he discovers his lover is the wife of a former death squad general in exile with mob connections. So much for the trip down memory lane - now Moran finds himself in a cat's cradle of drug deals, swindles, vengeance and murder. Elmore Leonard has written more than forty books during his phenomenal career. Many of his books have been made into successful movies, including Get Shorty, Out of Sight, Rum Punch (which became Tarantino's Jackie Brown) and Killshot. In 2006 he was awarded the CWA Diamond Dagger.
