The story follows the exploits of three desperate escaped convicts. They rob banks and have a string of successes. They buy guns, nice clothes, and fast cars and read about themselves in the newspapers. Bowie, the central figure of the three thieves, had been serving time for a murder he committed when only 16. Bowie falls in love with Keechie, the cousin of one of his partners, and she joins him on the run.

Would you listen to Thieves Like Us again? Why?
I would watch the film versions and compare them with this narration.
What was one of the most memorable moments of Thieves Like Us?
There were many but I loved the depiction of the 30's depression era and the "Asphalt Jungle" type ending the best.
What does Mike Dennis bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
Mike's excellent narration makes the characters come to life
If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?
"Tough times made tough people but most were all human at heart"

Historia4 out of 5 stars 12
In this novel, Thompson's first major success as a pulp fiction writer, Joe Wilmot, trying to go straight after a stretch in the pen, finds a movie house in a small crossroads that can use a helping hand and someone with half a brain for business. The theater's owner, Elizabeth, isn't the smartest operator around - or is she? Joe and the plain Jane Elizabeth decide maybe it would be better for business if they got married. Why not?

Historia4.5 out of 5 stars 19
The boys said it couldn't be done - knocking over a racetrack. Too much security. Too much money to handle. Too many obstacles. But Johnny Clay knew, if anyone did, how to mastermind a daring robbery. You just had to have the right people to work with, a few ringers on the inside who could keep their mouths shut, and a diversion. A big diversion. Like taking out the favorite horse on the most anticipated race with a high-powered rifle.

My first of the crime, thriller books although I had seen the movie: I found it to be my favorite so far.

The confrontation at the end between Val and the others waiting for Johnny.

Liked the others I've heard but like this one the best: he did an excellent job especially with the different character's dialog.

although was already made into a film, my tag line would have been. "A 2 million dollar caper with 1 weak link"
