Richard Stark
Parker, the ruthless antihero of Richard Stark's eponymous mystery novels, is one of the most unforgettable characters in hardboiled noir. Lauded by critics for his taut realism, unapologetic amorality, and razor-sharp prose-style, Stark is a master of crime writing, his books as influential as any in the genre. Parker goes under the knife in The Man with the Getaway Face, changing his face to escape the mob and a contract on his life. Along the way he scores his biggest heist yet: an armored car in New Jersey, stuffed with cash.

Of course, there’s also the fascination of seeing how a “job” was planned and executed in the days before the Internet, iPhones and the Dark Web. And I admit I enjoy taking a vacation from responsibility and slumming with the crooks—in this second installment, I’m already beginning to root for Parker (a little). And I very much enjoy the way John Chancer reads these stories.
