Dillinger

A novel set during the final days of John Dillinger, America's most notorious bank robber. In 1934, following his dramatic escape from an Indiana jail, Dillinger's whereabouts became uncertain. Reports placed him in New York, London, New Orleans, and California, though the FBI eventually located and killed him in Chicago. Speculation about his movements during those final months persisted. In Jack Higgins's account, Dillinger flees to Mexico, where his search for freedom brings him into contact with criminals far more dangerous than the federal agents pursuing him. The narrative follows Dillinger's final period as he encounters bloodthirsty bandits and corrupt police officers.
