description: From the National Book Awardwinning bestselling author of Tree of Smoke comes a provocative thriller set in the American West. Nobody Move which first appeared in the pages of Playboy is the story of an assortment of lowlifes in Bakersfield California and their cat-and-mouse game over $2.3 million. Touched by echoes of Raymond Chandler and Dashiell Hammett Nobody Move is at once an homage to and a variation on literary form. It salutes one of our most enduring and popular genresthe American crime novelbut with a grisly humor and outrageousness that are Denis Johnsons own. Sexy suspenseful and above all entertaining Nobody Move shows one of our greatest novelists at his versatile best.
