"The multimillion-dollar casino heist is impossible - it can't be done. That's what makes it irresistible to a legendary robber facing the rest of his life in prison for his 'Final Score.' An ambitious, hard-working college-bound teenager has a side job delivering illegal booze to 'The Sunday List' until a crooked cop, a seductive customer, and a fake guru threaten to end his dreams. An otherwise honest patrolman has to make an excruciating choice between his loyalty to the job and his love for a ne'er-do-well cousin in 'The North Wing.' Two wise guys tell each other a 'True Story' over breakfast at a diner. It's all bullshit and laughs until someone else has to pick up the check. The entitled, substance-addicted movie star that surfer/PI Boone Daniels and his crew are hired to babysit in 'The Lunch Break' is a problem. She also has a problem - someone wants her dead. Finally, the one terrible, momentary mistake that a devoted family man makes sends him to prison and on a 'Collision' course between the man he wants to be and the killer he's forced to become to survive. The Final Score is a propulsive, perceptive, and deeply immersive book of crime writing - the ultimate testament to Don Winslow's prowess as a living legend of the genre" -- Provided by publisher.
