Heat 2: A prequel and a sequel to the movie Heat with Al Pacino, Robert DeNiro, Val Kilmer etc.
80 pages in so far. They place both the robbery crew and the cop from the movie together at the same time in Chicago before the setting of the 1995 movie. The two are not intertwined while in Chicago. I'm not understanding how Al Pacinos character from the movie could be a detective in Chicago, then several years later be a detectivein LA when the crew is also out there taking scores.
The book also goes to post downtown LA police shootout with the crew with Val Kilmer's character, since he's the only survivor. He eventually escapes to Asia, but im not there yet.
I'll give a rating in a few months when i finally finish this, but so far its pretty good. Can't wait for the movie.
