Rent The Rare Coin Score: A Parker Novel

Synopsis

Parker, the ruthless anti-hero of Richard Stark's eponymous mystery novels, is one of the most unforgettable characters in hard-boiled noir. Lauded by critics for his taut realism, unapologetic amorality, and razor-sharp prose style - and adored by fans who turn each intoxicating page with increasing urgency - Stark is a master of crime writing, his books as influential as any in the genre. The University of Chicago Press has embarked on a project to return the early volumes of this series to print for a new generation of readers to discover - and become addicted to. This season's offerings include volumes 7-9 in the series: 'The Seventh', 'The Handle', and 'The Rare Coin Score'. 'The Rare Coin Score' features the first appearance of Claire, who will steal Parker's heister's heart - while together they steal two million dollars of rare coins.
