Elmore Leonard
World-class gentleman felon Jack Foley is busting out of Florida's Glades Prison when he runs head on into a shotgun-wielding Karen Sisco. Suddenly, he's sharing a cramped car trunk with the classy, disarmed federal marshal, and the chemistry is working overtime - and as soon as she escapes, he's already missing her. But there are bad men and a major score waiting for Jack in Motown. And the next time his path crosses Karen's, chances are she's going to be there for business, not pleasure.

Where does Out of Sight rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
Out of Sight would be close to the top of my list.What other book might you compare Out of Sight to and why?
This book was somewhat similar to other crime books that are character based, such as Mystic River. And of course very much in Leonard's signature style in books such as Killshot.Any additional comments?
Many of Leonard's characters are very authentic and relatable, but surprisingly complex. Jack Foley is great as the consummate criminal, a bank robber, yet one somehow with class and grace on his own terms. He doesn't care for the crass crimes of some of the other criminals he falls in with.Karen Sisco is a great character too. She plays by her own rules and has a great way of asking forgiveness rather than permission. Fatally flawed, yet a very effective agent.
Classic Elmore Leonard, Fantastic Characters

Would you try another book from Elmore Leonard and/or George Guidall?
I would definitely try another Elmore Leonard book. Not sure I'd do another George Guidall version, though. His female voices were really simpering and annoying.What was your reaction to the ending? (No spoilers please!)
Not totally satisfied with the ending, but I was in suspense until the very end, which was great.How did the narrator detract from the book?
I didn't care for his style, especially because of the way he did female voices. They were too simpering and the words too drawn out. On the other hand, this book had a lot of dialog, and I know that has to be hard to do without getting too over the top.Do you think Out of Sight needs a follow-up book? Why or why not?
Perhaps. Wouldn't mind seeing what happens down the road, but the author passed away, so that isn't going to happen.Any additional comments?
The book was a pretty fun ride, but I expected it to be wittier. All the characters were well drawn, and I had no idea how the plot was going to play out until the very end. (In my rating system, 3=good, 4=very good, 5=a classic I want everyone to read.)Good, not Great
