Hit and Run by Lawrence Block

 

Grabbed this in spite of my not preferring series fiction, because Block is usually fun to read, and good for a few chuckles. This hit those marks pretty precisely. The novel is copyright 2008, so it's not wildly obsolescent in terms of the technology at play (though I think Block whiffed on the cameras at tollbooths). The story is ... a little indirect, the POV spends a lot of time on the run, then settling down, before he has his revenge on the people who framed him for a very public killing; the fact the POV is a hitman complicates the morality, here, at least a little bit. He's not a horrible person, but he's capable of being very much not a good one, either. There are layers here and much to be interested. This isn't Block at his funniest, but there's still wit and sparkle all over, here.
