Publisher's Summary

Bank robberies should run like clockwork, right? If your name's Parker, you expect nothing less. Until, that is, one of your partners gets too greedy for his own good. The four-way split following a job leaves too small a take for George Uhl, who begins to pick off his fellow hoisters, one by one. The first mistake? That he doesn't begin things by putting a bullet in Parker. That means he won't get the chance to make a second. One of the darkest novels in the series, this caper proves the adage that no one crosses Parker and lives.

Parker double-crossed

The Sour Lemon Score is one of the darker of the Parker series, and that's saying a lot. There is less heist planning in this book than many, and more about the after-heist events. in that way, it bears closer resemblance to The Hunter than most. The book also introduces characters who will return much later in the series. A good book for fans, but not the best place to start the series.
