About this audiobook
“Constant action and top-notch writing.”
—New York Times
A Palm Beach playboy who amuses himself with murder finds himself on a collision course with a vacationing Motown cop in Elmore Leonard’s Split Images—a gripping and electrifying example of noir gold from “the coolest, hottest writer in America” (Chicago Tribune). Split Images is Grand Master Leonard at the top of his game, a bravura example of how exemplary crime fiction is done by a writer who stands tall among the all-time mystery greats: John D. MacDonald, Dashiell Hammett, James M. Cain, et al. The brilliant creator of U.S. Marshal Raylan Givens (of TV’s Justified) now brings us a cast of vivid and unforgettable characters on both sides of the law, in a twisting masterwork of unrelenting suspense that the Washington Post calls, “Brilliant...impressive...superb.”

- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5I gave it a 3-star. Because I expected more from E.L. Anyone else would get a 4.
And you know it's going to turn out bad when a detective uses the "L" word. - Rating: 2 out of 5 stars2/5So-so drama of a millionaire who fancies himself a soldier of fortune in Detroit and Florida, Leonard's two favorite places. Not great Leonard.
