Clean Break by Lionel White ~ Full Audiobook [thriller]

from The Book Reader · host Classic Audiobook Collection LLC

Clean Break by Lionel White audiobook. Genre: thriller Fresh out of prison and living on borrowed time, Johnny Clay believes he has designed the perfect score: rob a New York racetrack on its busiest day, when the cash is piled high and the crowd provides cover. Johnny is no dreamer, though. He knows the biggest risk is people, so he builds his crew from seemingly ordinary men with money troubles and quiet desperation: Marvin Unger, a court stenographer who can bankroll the operation; Big Mike, a racetrack bartender with access and nerve; Randy Kennan, a cop squeezed by debts and bad bets; and George Peatty, a cashier whose unhappy home life makes him dangerously vulnerable. Around them, Johnny arranges a series of precise distractions, timed to the minute, meant to pull guards and police in the wrong direction just long enough for the takedown. Told in tight, shifting viewpoints, Clean Break turns preparation into suspense, tracing how greed, pride, and mistrust ripple through a plan that depends on everyone staying silent and steady. It is classic hard-boiled noir: lean, relentless, and obsessed with the cost of one clean escape.
