Up in Honey's Room LP

German-born Walter Schoen, now living in Detroit, is a dead ringer for Heinrich Himmler. Walter’s American wife, Honey Deal, doesn’t know he’s a German spy, but she’s tired of telling him jokes he doesn’t understand—it’s time for a divorce. Along comes Carl Webster, the hot kid of the Marshals Service. He’s looking for a German officer who escaped from a POW camp in Oklahoma. Carl’s pretty sure Walter’s involved, so Carl gets to know Honey, hoping she’ll take him to Walter. Honey likes Carl and doesn’t much care that he’s married. But all Carl wants is to get his man without getting shot. It’s Elmore Leonard’s world—gritty, funny, and full of surprises.
