The Getaway

Jim Thompson

Classic crime novel by acclaimed author Jim Thompson - 'the best suspense writer going bar none' NEW YORK TIMES

The story of a bank robbery and its aftermath of cross and double-cross told with the unflinching eye of America's greatest crime writer.

When it comes to pulling off the perfect bank job Doc McCoy wrote the book. But with a partner like Rudy Torrento who is not only treacherous but insane and a wife who is still an amateur McCoy has forgotten something: when the crime is big and bloody enough there is no such thing as a clean getaway.
