Publisher Description
In 1934, after his spectacular jailbreak from a cell in Indiana, Dillinger was like a ghost—some claimed to spot him in New York, others in London, New Orleans, or California. Though the FBI would eventually find and kill Dillinger in Chicago, speculation about his whereabouts in those mysterious final months never waned.
In Jack Higgins’s suspenseful imagining, Dillinger flees to Mexico, where his attempts at finding freedom launch the fugitive into the clutches of men much more dangerous than the federal agents on his trail. This dramatic account of Dillinger’s final days brings him face-to-face with bloodthirsty bandits and corrupt police officers, breathing vivid life into the story of America’s most fascinating outlaw.

"Very interesting look at the life of Dillinger as historical fiction. Really different kind of story from Jack Higgins, but a good read."

" i like most of Mr Higgins books for some reason i loved this one "

" I understand this is a fictional account of what could have happened, but it really doesn't add up and is sort of random. "

" Nobody really knows what Dillinger did between the time of his last escape from prison and the time he was gunned down. This is one version of how he might have spent those last months of his life. Well told. "
— Carolyn, 7/16/2012 -
" Author used the Dillinger name to write a fictional story that would be marketable. No fact, only fiction that could have been written about a character by any name. I like historical fiction, but really? "
— Melissa, 7/5/2012 -
" A preposterous mess. "
