The inspiration for the major motion picture starring Ryan Gosling, Drive is a dark thriller that was named an Entertainment Weekly Top 10 Book of the Year and a Washington Post Best Book of the Year. This edition will feature extra materials, including a reading group guide and author Q&A.

Driver works as a stunt driver by day and a getaway driver by night. He drives, that's all-until he's double-crossed. And suddenly, driving isn't enough any more... but murder might be.

""Much later, as he sat with his back against an inside wall of a Motel 6 just north of Phoenix, watching the pool of blood lap toward him, Driver would wonder whether he had made a terrible mistake. Later still, of course, there'd be no doubt. But for now Driver is, as they say, in the moment. And the moment includes this blood lapping toward him, the pressure of dawn's late light at windows and door, traffic sounds from the interstate nearby, the sound of someone weeping in the next room...." Thus begins Drive by one of the nation's most respected and honored authors. Set mostly in Arizona and L.A., the story is, according to Sallis, "about a guy who does stunt driving for movies by day and drives for criminals at night. In classic noir fashion, he is double-crossed and, though never before has he participated in the violence (I drive. That's all.), he goes after the ones who double-crossed and tried to kill him.""--
