Up to "Firebreak", in which Parker and friends rob a billionaire's Montana palace. The first line is,"Backflash" by Richard Stark. From 1998. One of his 'Parker' novels.
Brilliant first line:When the car stopped rolling, Parker kicked out the rest of the windshield and crawled through onto the wrinkled hood, Glock first.
Hard to beat.When the phone rang, Parker was in the garage, killing a man.
