I haven't read that one (will have to look for it in
my local library which has most of Westlake's books)
But if you can find Katawa -- a wonderful caper novel
about an attempt to smuggle a Ugandan coffee shipment
to Kenya during Idi Amin's reign -- it's by far his best
book. Also, don't miss The Ax, in which a downsized, 50-
something paper company executive decides to off his
competitors and regain the job to which he has become
accustomed.

BTW, the book is a lot of fun. It's the best I've read by Westlake.
