Out of Sight

by Elmore Leonard

Despite his silky smoothness, Jack Foley has still managed to land in prison. He soon escapes, but then has the bad luck to run into deputy U.S. marshal Karen Sisco. He stuffs her into the trunk of the getaway car driven by his friend Buddy, but being a gentleman as well as a wanted man, climbs in with her. An odd first date, it works until Sisco escapes and heads up the party looking for the jailbird. But he's already on his way to Detroit where he has a heist-ready gang of pals expecting him. A classic Leonard tale of crime, caper, and fun.

Publisher Notes

The new paperback from Elmore Leonard, "a literary genius who writes re-readable thrillers" (Martin Amis, The New York Times Book Review), Out of Sight features Deputy U.S. Marshal Karen Sisco and legendary bank robber Jack Foley. Karen Sisco is just stopping off to serve a summons and complaint on Floridas Glades Prison. Shes all decked out in her Chanel suit and heels, but ready with her pump-action shotgun when the breakout begins, minutes after she pulls into the prison parking lot. But shes not ready for Jack Foley, the celebrity con who disarms her, invites her to climb into the trunk of her own car, and then joins her as his pal Buddy races onto the highway, heading for freedom. Squeezed into a trunk littered with handcuffs and tactical gear, the escapee bank robber is a perfect gentleman who shares Karens passion for movies and wonders if it would be different if they'd met in a bar.

Media Reviews

"As usual, Mr. Leonard weaves an absorbing story full of offbeat characters, funny incidents, vivid locales, dialogue that jumps off the page and curious inside information about the criminal world..."
