An action-packed entry in the classic hard-boiled crime series starring Parker, the heister you don't want to cross! <p/> Richard Stark's Parker novels are the hardest of hard-boiled, classic crime novels where the heists are huge, the body counts are high, and the bad guys usually win. <p/> The Parker novels have been a huge influence on countless writers and filmmakers, including Quentin Tarantino, Stephen King, George Pelecanos, Colson Whitehead, Lucy Sante, John Banville, and many more. Their stripped-down language and hard-as-nails amorality create an unforgettable world where the next score could be the big one, but your next mistake could also be your last. There's nothing else like them. <p/> The robbery was a piece of cake. The getaway was clean. The only thing left to do is split the cash-then it all goes wrong. In The Seventh, the heist of a college football game turns sour and the take is stolen from right under Parker's nose. With the cops on his tail, Parker must figure out who crossed him-and how he can pay the culprit back.
