Nobody Move

'Think 'Reservoir Dogs' or Cormac McCarthy's 'No Country for Old Men.' Think Raymond Chandler and James Ellroy' LIONEL SHRIVER, 'Daily Telegraph' Jimmy Luntz owes money to a man called Juarez. Trouble is, Juarez isn't the most patient of men. And when he gets bored of waiting, he sends someone round to collect. Luntz doesn't actually plan to shoot the guy, but the way he sees it, it's shoot or be shot. Either way, though, Luntz is out of his league, and he knows it: nobody messes with Juarez - or, at least, nobody messes with Juarez and lives to tell the tale.
