Split Images

De: Elmore Leonard

Narrado por: George Guidall

“Constant action and top-notch writing.”
—New York Times

A Palm Beach playboy who amuses himself with murder finds himself on a collision course with a vacationing Motown cop in Elmore Leonard’s Split Images—a gripping and electrifying example of noir gold from “the coolest, hottest writer in America” (Chicago Tribune). Split Images is Grand Master Leonard at the top of his game, a bravura example of how exemplary crime fiction is done by a writer who stands tall among the all-time mystery greats: John D. MacDonald, Dashiell Hammett, James M. Cain, et al. The brilliant creator of U.S. Marshal Raylan Givens (of TV’s Justified) now brings us a cast of vivid and unforgettable characters on both sides of the law, in a twisting masterwork of unrelenting suspense that the Washington Post calls, “Brilliant...impressive...superb.”

An Excellent Story

Some of Leonard’s stories are tongue-in-cheek, but not this one. This one is serious and also sad, if not bitter. I’d have to say it’s one of his best. Guidance does an especially good job at capturing not just accents, but the attitudes of the characters. Really well done.

Quite enjoyable

Enjoyed the book and the reader very much. I thought he did a great job with different voices and accents. Story is entertaining. Maybe not Leonard’s best but held my interest for the entire book!

Can’t stand the reader !

Reader is awful. Makes every character sound like my grandpa. Such a shame. This trader is a no go.

Couldn't finish it

I love Elmore Leonard. I've read most of his non-westerns. I also usually like George Guidall (He is excellent in the Walt Longmire books. Also liked his narration of the "hot kid" series from Leonard). However here he is just, well, boring and annoying. He is not, imho, the right narrator for Leonard's urban novels. If only with the incomparable Frank Muller had recorded *everything* Leonard wrote.

George and Elmore can’t be beat!

Great reading, outstanding writing, from two masters! Even if you read this book, listen to it again…
