See all books by Peter Leonard
Debut thriller by Elmore Leonard's son.
One of the most riveting and powerful new
voices in crime fiction, Peter Leonard delivers a razor-sharp debut
thriller.
Kate McCall’s husband has been killed by
her son, Luke, in a tragic bow-hunting accident. While Kate struggles with her
son’s surly guilt, her first love, Jack, an ex-con, reappears, along with a crew
of his former “colleagues.” While Jack must convince his partners in crime that
he really did lose the heist money, his appearance sets into motion a
series of events culminating in a life-and-death confrontation with a gang of
killers.
Leonard displays remarkable maturity for a
first-time novelist in both the plotting of the story and the language of his
protagonists. The twists and turns of a love affair, an unrequited crush, and a
kidnapping/extortion plot complement a tightly drawn, intimate cast of memorably
quick and dim-witted characters.
Quiver marks the breakthrough of a
new force in thriller writing—-an explosive and unforgettable debut.
