<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Florida motel owner George Moran isn't looking for trouble while in the Dominican Republic, but it finds him when he winds up in bed with the wife of a drug-dealing mob-connected Dominican cop who's vicious, macho and ready to follow George to the ends of the earth, which, in this case, means Miami.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>"<em>Cat Chaser</em> is just what one would expect from Elmore Leonard--quirky, peopled with oddball characters...and more twists and turns than a roller coaster."<br />--<em>Cleveland Plain Dealer</em></p><p>"A superior example of gritty writing and violent action." <br />--<em>New York Times </em></p><p>There are numerous reasons why Grand Master Elmore Leonard is considered "the coolest, hottest thriller writer in America" (<em>Chicago Tribune</em>) and "the greatest crime writer of our time, perhaps ever" (<em>New York Times Book Review</em>). <em>Cat Chaser</em> is one of them. A gripping, lightning-paced tale of an ex-soldier-turned Florida motel owner whose dangerous affair with the mistress of a Dominican general in exile--a former death squad leader--threatens to have lethal consequences...especially when drugs, double-cross, and murderous mob thugs are added into the mix. A classic thriller from crime fiction master who first brought us U.S. Marshal Raylan Givens, currently of TV's <em>Justified</em>, <em>Cat Chaser</em> proves once more that when the true greats of mystery and suspense are mentioned--John D. MacDonald, Dashiell Hammett, James M. Cain, Robert Parker, et al--Elmore Leonard tops the list.<br /></p><p/><br></br><p><b> From the Back Cover </b></p></br></br><p>The last time Florida motel owner George Moran was in the Dominican Republic he was in a uniform and people were shooting at him. Years later he's back looking for a girl he lost--and finding one he'd be better off without. But that doesn't matter to George while he's sleeping with beautiful Mary DeBoya--only when he discovers his lover is the wife of a former death squad general in exile with solid mob connections. Now George is bringing big trouble back with him to the Sunshine State--as his nostalgic trip down memory lane has tangled him up in a cat's cradle of drug deals, swindles, vengeance, and murder . . . and a love that's not only blind but lethal.</p>
