    • It should have all been so easy for Vincent Madigan. Take four hundred grand from the thieves who stole it in the first place and who could they turn to for help? Madigan is charming, resourceful, and knows how to look after himself. The only problem is that he's up to his neck in debt to the drug king of East Harlem. This one heist will give Madigan the chance he needs to get his life back on track. But things go wrong when Madigan is forced to kill his co-conspirators and a child is shot in the crossfire. Now both sides of the law are hunting him down, and the one cop assigned to lead the case is the very last person he could have expected. Employing every deception and ruse he can think of, Madigan must stay one step ahead in a battle of wits that will test him to his limits. Can he evade justice for his crimes, or will his own conscience be his final undoing?

      Roman policier (suspense) Texas, 1960. Elliott et Clarence sont deux demi-frères nés sous une mauvaise étoile. Après l'assassinat de leur mère, ils ont passé le plus clair de leur adolescence dans des maisons de correction et autres établissements pénitentiaires pour mineurs. Le jour où Earl Sheridan, un psychopathe de la pire espèce, les prend en otages pour échapper à la prison et à la condamnation à mort, ils se retrouvent embarqués dans un périple douloureux et meurtrier. Alors que Sheridan, accompagné des deux adolescents, sème la terreur dans les petites villes américaines bien tranquilles qui jalonnent leur route, une sanglante et terrible partie se met en place entre les trois protagonistes. Loin de se douter de la complexité de celle-ci, la police, lancée à leurs trousses, et en particulier l'inspecteur Cassidy ne sont pas au bout de leurs surprises.
