description: Jack Ryan has a man's fists, and the cunning of an ex-con. Nancy Hayes has a woman's sleek moves and the instincts of a shark. Now, in a Michigan resort town, a rich man wants Jack gone and Nancy for himself. For Ryan the choice is Nancy's promises of pleasure, her crazy, thrill-seeking schemes of breaking into homes, shooting guns and maybe stealing a whole lot of money are driving him half mad. But there's one thing Ryan doesn't know his new playmate is planning the deadliest thrill of all. Razor sharp and wholly unpredictable, the Big Bounce is an Elmore Leonard classic - a sly, beguiling story of a man, a woman and a nasty little crime.
