A kidnapping plan cribbed from a crime novel goes hilariously wrong for gang boss John Dortmunder--from the Edgar Award-winning author of Bank Shot. When his friend Andy Kelp has a plan, career criminal John Dortmunder knows that means trouble. Kelps schemes, no matter how well intentioned, tend to spiral quickly out of control. But this one, Kelp swears, is airtight. He read it in a book! The novel featured a kidnapping so brilliant theres no way it wouldnt work in real life. Though offended that his usual role as heist planner has been usurped, Dortmunder reluctantly agrees to the scheme. Unfortunately, they kidnap a kid smarter than all of them put together. Whats simple on the page turns complex and chaotic--and theres no reference guide to help Dortmunder through the madness hes signed on for. [Westlakes] most durable character. Whatever can go wrong in the mans elaborate attempts at larceny invariably does, and in the most amusing and unexpected ways possible. --Los Angeles Times Westlake has no peer in the realm of comic mystery novelists. --San Francisco Chronicle
