I haven't read this, but will give it a go, thanks.
Have you read any of his Parker books, written under the pseudomyn of Richard Stark? I have been working my way throgh them since late last year, and am generally enjoing them, though so far there has been very little character development in terms of the lead character, Parker, and I'm hoping that eventually this is going to change.
