Together at last. Under the pseudonym Richard Stark, Donald E. Westlake, one of the greats of crime fiction, wrote twenty-four fast-paced, hard-boiled novels featuring Parker, a shrewd career criminal with a talent for heists and a code all his own. With the publication of the last four Parker novels Westlake wrote--Breakout, Nobody Runs Forever, Ask the Parrot, and Dirty Money--the University of Chicago Press pulls the ultimate score: for the first time ever, the entire Parker series will be available from a single publisher.In Ask the Parrot, Parker's back on the run, dodging dogs, cops, and even a helicopter. Forced to work with a small-town recluse and a group of fools at a gun club in rural Massachusetts, Parker focuses on getting the cash and getting out. It'll be a deadly day at the races.
Featuring new forewords by Chris Holm, Duane Swierczynski, and Laura Lippman--celebrated crime writers, all--these masterworks of noir are the capstone to an extraordinary literary run that will leave you craving more. Written over the course of fifty years, the Parker novels are pure artistry, adrenaline, and logic both brutal and brilliant. Join Parker on his jobs and read them all again or for the first time. But don't talk to the law.

Noice Lights from Govee!
Item Package Quantity: 2
Worth the investment especially if you have space for them and you have a big TV. I rock with a 75" in my living room. The box has a manual control module with buttons you can press, but this works with Alexa or Google Home via voice command. The Govee app unlocks way more settings and tuning, including what you see here. Super easy to set up the bars and link up everything. Easily worth the money. Brightness can be adjusted, lights are great, and color options (patterns, reactive, rotating, etc.) are fun. Cheers!

Best option for Sim Racing Ambient Lighting
Item Package Quantity: 2
I picked up these Light Bars from Govee specifically for my sim racing setup to be used for ambient lighting, and they’ve exceeded expectations.
The RGBIC technology is the standout feature. Being able to display multiple colors on each bar at the same time makes the lighting effects far more dynamic than standard RGB strips. During races, the lighting reacts smoothly to telemetry data—RPM, flags, rev limiter, and speed shifts all translate into immersive ambient effects that genuinely add to the experience.
Setup was straightforward, but the real highlight was the seamless SimHub integration. Configuration was quick, and the light bars responded immediately once connected. No complicated workarounds, no lag—just clean, real-time feedback. If you're already using SimHub for dashboards or bass shakers, these integrate perfectly into that ecosystem.
Brightness is more than enough for ambient lighting without being distracting, and the diffusion along the 31-inch bars keeps everything looking clean and professional—no visible LED hotspots. The WiFi connectivity has been stable, and the app gives you plenty of customization options outside of racing as well.
For anyone building a sim rig and wanting that extra layer of immersion, these are absolutely worth it.

GREAT way to view TV
On initial set up and use of just few days I love this little light bar
I'm 74 and I set this up in less than 10 min. Playing with Govee App took about same time for basic functions.
The backlighting is great and now my room is lighted during night when I sleepwalk to bathroom.
I'll decide later if I want to use adhesive pads. Currently it just sits on TV stand behind TV.
All in all it's great! I would definitely buy again and highly recommend.
Colors in photos are actually less bright in my room. The Govee App allows many many color variations. Just set up and create color palate for favorite colors and patterns. Eezee Peezee
