The Hot Kid by Elmore Leonard
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
Love Elmore Leonard. This is the first book in the Carl Webster series so I’ll need to find the rest. FBI agent Webster is the ultimate good guy who doesn’t want to take advantage of criminals. He always gives them a chance to surrender before he blows them away. Sort of a Dirty Harry of the Depression. And he has Sherlock Holmes power of observation and deduction. All the characters are so well drawn you can smell them and see the glint in their eyes.
