Description
In New York, there was a contract on his life. In Nebraska, there was an unscrupulous plastic surgeon guarded by a punch-drunk fighter. And somewhere in New Jersey, there was an armored car stuffed with money. In the middle of it all was Parker.
Parker goes under the knife in The Man with the Getaway Face, changing his face to escape the mob and a contract on his life. Along the way, he scores his biggest heist yet, but there’s a catch—a beautiful, dangerous catch who goes by the name Alma.
