"Splendid...entirely engrossing." --Los Angeles Times "First-rate...an excellent thriller...well-plotted and smoothly written...crackles with suspense." --Bergan Record A classic crime novel, Mr. Majestyk is vintage Elmore Leonard--an edgy, dark, fiendishly compelling tale of a quiet man making a whole lot of noise. "The best writer of crime fiction today" (USA Today)--the acclaimed author who brought the world Raylan Givens, the trigger-happy U.S. Marshal who lights up TV screens across America in the hit series Justified--Leonard makes a big noise himself with this timeless noir tale of personal justice and brutal vengeance. When a war veteran Arizona farmer loses everything, ruined by the local mob, he decides to fight back in this masterful crime fiction thriller--early proof that Leonard not only belongs in the company of John D. MacDonald, Dashiell Hammett, James M. Cain, Robert B. Parker and the other great names in American mystery and suspense...he is, in fact, "The King Daddy of crime writers" (Seattle Times).

One of the main attractions here (and in all of his novels presumably) is the crisp, straight-forward prose. There are absolutely no wasted words here. Leonard pens a tight, 188 page story that keeps your attention the whole way. I didn’t want to put this down, and I really didn’t have to because the reading was easy. That’s the sign of a great writer. I’ll be reading more of his 45 novels.
