À propos de cet audio

The odd thing about Walter Schoen, German born but now running a butcher shop in Detroit, is that he's a dead ringer for Heinrich Himmler, head of the SS and the Gestapo. Honey Deal, Walter's American wife, doesn't know that Walter is a member of a spy ring and gives shelter to escaped German POWs. But she's tired of telling him jokes he doesn't understand; it's time for a divorce.

Along comes Carl Webster, the Hot Kid of the Marshals Service. He's looking for Jurgen Schrenk. Carl's pretty sure Walter's involved with keeping Schrenk hidden, so he gets to know Honey, hoping she'll lead him to Walter. Honey likes the hot kid marshal and doesn't much care that he's married. But all Carl wants is to get Jurgen without getting shot.

Next, Carl meets Vera Mezwa, the Ukrainian head of the spy ring, and her lover Bohdan, who has a sly way of killing. And then there's Otto, the Waffen-SS major who runs away with a nice Jewish girl. It's Elmore Leonard's world: gritty, funny, and full of surprises.

Ce que les critiques en disent

"This being a Leonard novel, the dialogue flows as fast and as smooth as any words ever uttered in service of a story. It's as if the best of Mel Brooks and Quentin Tarantino were refined into something altogether finer and purer. And, in Honey Deal, Leonard has created yet another of his smart, ballsy, sexy, take-no-prisoners females. If there is a little more slapstick and a little less crime here than usual, it hardly matters. The talk's the thing. Leonard hooks you with his first quotation mark." (Booklist)

Rich, Exciting story made dull by Narrator

I was Really looking forward to listening to this book on a recent 3 hr road trip, & also wanted to introduce my wife to the wonderful writing/tale spinner Elmore Leonard. Unfortunately the narrator was so dull, slow & unanimated that I feared listening could put us to sleep while driving. I'm sure the speaking style of narrator was meant to mimic that of the region & Era - Oklahoma, Kansas in the 1940's - but it was overkill, deadpan & slow to the point of dismay. Too bad as I know the work & guess I expected something a bit more engaging.
