Product Details
- The classic heist thriller from the master of the American groin-kick novel—the basis for the movie starring Steve McQueen (Vanity Fair).Doc McCoy is the most skilled criminal alive. But when for the first time in Doc's long criminal career, his shot doesn't hit the mark, everything begins to fall apart. And Doc begins to realize that the perfect bank robbery isn't complete without the perfect getaway to back it up.The Getaway is the classic story of a bank robbery gone horribly wrong, where the smallest mistakes have catastrophic consequences, and shifting loyalties lead to betrayals and chaos. The basis for the classic Steve McQueen film of the same name, as well as a 1994 remake with Alec Baldwin, Thompson's novel set the bar for every heist story that followed—but as Thompson's proved time and again, nobody's ever done it better than the master.Praise for Jim ThompsonThe best suspense writer going, bar none. —The New York TimesMy favorite crime novelist—often imitated but never duplicated. —Stephen KingMy man in crime fiction. —Jo NesbøIf Raymond Chandler, Dashiell Hammett, and Cornell Woolrich would have joined together in some ungodly union and produced a literary offspring, Jim Thompson would be it . . . His work casts a dazzling light on the human condition. —The Washington Post

“Ubuy Hong Kong is a game-changer. I was looking for a specific American brand that doesn't ship to Asia, and Ubuy had it in stock. The selection of global products is incredible. It saves me the hassle of using freight forwarders or asking friends to bring items over. The process was seamless from checkout to delivery”
