T. JEFFERSON PARKER discusses and signs
L.A. Outlaws
(Penguin, $25.95)
|
A starred review from Publishers Weekly: "The irresistible antihero of this outstanding thriller from bestseller Parker calls herself Allison Murrieta and claims to be a descendant of Joaquin Murrieta, a 19th-century figure who looms large in California folklore (he was either a ruthless robber and killer or an Old West vigilante and Robin Hood). By day, Allison is Suzanne Jones, an eighth-grade history teacher with three sons in Los Angeles; by night, she dons a mask, straps on her derringer and steals from the greedy... This tour de force of plotting and characterization may well be Parker's best book." And Library Journal said: "[Parker's] ability to evoke the cultural landscape of Southern California, with all its audacity and media obsession, is spot-on." | |
