Mr. Paradise by Elmore Leonard

Elmore Leonard has written more than thirty novels and screenplays including Get Shorty, Tishomingo Blues and Rum Punch. His novel The Big Bounce was recently made into a motion picture starring Morgan Freeman and Owen Wilson.

Elmore Leonard’s Mr. Paradise is a roller coaster ride of a murder investigation that shows us the seedier sides of people and places usually only seen by cops and their quarry. This master storyteller’s latest suspense thriller does not fail to surprise and delight as we stumble along with his star detective down the road to the truth, and maybe even a little justice.
