The Hunter(1962)

Richard Stark

NYC 1950s. In the first volume of the series, Parker roars into New York City, seeking revenge on the woman who betrayed him and on the man who took his money, stealing and scamming his way to redemption. Parker is a pro thief, expert robber. Tough, smart, hardworking, amoral, and relentlessly focused. Do not cross him, or get in his way. He will stop at nothing, kill anyone, to get what he wants.

University of Chicago Press has embarked on a project to return the early volumes of this series to print.
