âWicked and irresistibleâŠ.Elmore Leonard is a literary genius.â
âNew York Times Book Review
Before U.S. Marshal Raylan Givens began electrifying TV viewers across America (in the hit series Justified), he âstarredâ in Elmore Leonardâs Riding the Rapâan explosive, twisty tale of a brazen Florida kidnap caper gone outrageously wrong. Chock full of wildly eccentric and deliciously criminal charactersâincluding a psycho enforcer with a green thumb, a Bahamian bad man, and the beautiful, unabashedly greedy psychic Reverend DawnâRiding the Rap dazzles with Leonardâs trademark ingenious plot turns and razor-keen dialogue. Gripping, surprising, and unforgettable, it is a crime fiction gem that any thriller writerâfrom past masters John D. MacDonald, Dashiell Hammett, and James M. Cain to the bestselling mystery auteurs of todayâwould be thrilled to call his own.
