Title: Pronto
Author: Elmore Leonard
Narrator: Nick Landrum
Format: Unabridged
Length: 7 hrs and 19 mins
Language: English
Release date: 04-29-14
Publisher: Audible Studios

Publisher's Summary:
Harry Arno runs a South Miami Beach gambling operation. To protect his position, he was forced to cut a deal with the local muscle, Jimmy Capotorto (Jumbo Jimmy Cap), an even fifty-fifty split. For years Harry had been padding his own stake by skimming off the top. Now a couple of local detectives - wise to sticky fingers - try to bag Jimmy by putting the squeeze on Harry.
U.S. Marshalls deliver Harry to court to testify at Jimmy's trial. Even though he's a step slower than he used to be, Harry's no fool - he slips out of the country pronto. With Jimmy Cap's men following and the Feds close behind, the three sides end up in Italy, watching their own backs while keeping abreast of Harry's. But it's not until the chase leads back to Miami that the real winners and losers are revealed....
Elmore Leonard was born in New Orleans on 11 October, 1925. He wrote 45 books during his phenomenal career, including the best sellers Mr Paradise, Tishomingo Blues, Be Cool, and The Hot Kid. Many have been made into successful movies, including Get Shorty, with John Travolta; Out of Sight, with George Clooney; and Rum Punch, which became Tarantino's Jackie Brown. He is the recipient of the Cartier Diamond Dagger Award and the PEN USA Lifetime Achievement Award. He died on 20 August, 2013, in Detroit.

Critic Reviews:
No one does it better than Elmore Leonard and this grabs from the first line and doesn't let go. Pure brilliance -- HUDDERSFIELD DAILY EXAMINER
Members Reviews:
pretty good
As a fan of the show "Justified," I enjoyed very well certain parts but got somewhat less excited by other parts, even though it was still enjoyable. This was a quick read. It is a good book to read while traveling. People should remember than none of this book is in Harlan but it is still pretty enjoyable and feels like a glimpse into Raylan's life before returning to Kentucky, but with children.
Great product and service. I'll buy more in the future.A++++++++++++

One Star
The TV show made from it was much better than the book as far as adventure and suspense.
Five Stars
Arrived quickly, and was as advertised.
Another good one from Elmore
Love Leonard's yarns.
