Get Shorty (Chili Palmer, Bk 1)
reviewed on + 23 more book reviews


"The best American writer of crime fiction alive (Newsweek) outdoes himself in 'GET SHORTY', a novel that proves the successful crook has all the job skills required to make it in Hollywood. 'GET SHORTY' features the real-life characters, scams, surprises, gunplay, and read-aloud dialogue you expect from Elmore Leonard, and something more: the benefit of his twenty years' experience in the film industry."
