Vincent Majestyk, decorated Vietnam vet and ex-convict, is just trying to make a straight living growing melons. A jailbreak gone wrong sends him headfirst into the scuzzy underbelly of the south, where he realizes he’s more in his element than ever.

Meh. There wasn’t really anything to dislike, but not much to make this book particularly memorable either. The plot and characters read like a pretty standard action movie, and Leonard does a decent job of getting that action across and keeping it going. To me, this book’s biggest shortcoming is that any time it drew near to the characters� motivation, it either redirected the topic or shut it down outright. It’s a very short book too, which I think reflects the fact that it’s missing something.
