Product Description
The classic bestseller by the author of Impostors. Eddie Coyle is a small-time punk with a big-time problem--whom to sell out to avoid being sent up again.
Amazon.com Review
George V. Higgins's first novel is like a blast of Atlantic air; the Boston prosecutor virtually reinvents the language of the crime novel with his unique ability to breathe life into the dialogue of the smalltime hoodlum and hustler. Trying to pull off one final score, career crook Eddie Coyle finds himself squeezed out of shape by the people above and below him. The explosive conclusion is inevitable yet fascinating.
