The Green Eagle Score

In which Parker teams up with an amateur and an old pro to steal the payroll at an air force base.  

Less action oriented than any book in the series since The Jugger, The Green Eagle Score is largely concerned with studying how people interact and react in a drawn-out, tense situation--in this case, the long period of time between the conception of a heist and its execution.  Parker stays cool as a cucumber, of course, but the strain on certain parties involved sets up the inevitable moment when the heist goes wrong.

The Green Eagle Score falls somewhere in the middle of the Parker spectrum.  Its buildup is long and drawn out, and may tax the patience of certain readers, but its got a terrific, everything-but-the-kitchen-sink finale that makes the read well worth the time spent.

I've got an unproduced script for The Green Eagle Score that I hope to be able to tell you about soon.

Thanks to Glenn Campbell for the images.
