One Elmore Leonard book about to be published and another already well underway - have we ever had it so good?!
I’m intrigued as to the Somali pirate element in the new book, very timely, and yet another facet to Mr, Leonards fiction universe.
I, for one, cant wait.

You said it, brother.

I wonder will we see Terry Dunn, or hear something about him, in Djibouti?

Pagan Babies is my favorite, and I think Mr. L’s best.

Well, well, well. It turns out Elmore’s written about Djibouti before. Check out Ch. 12 (at least in the Kindle version) of Bandits and read of the Moose (aka DeLeon Johnson), enforcer for Jackie Garbo, who was born in Djibouti.

Well spotted/ remembered. Maybe we can look forward to more ‘touchstones’ in the new book.
