Excellent political satire by one of the excellent authors of tongue in cheek crime fiction. Reads like it could be ripped from contemporary (2020s) American political news.Still can't figure out the title meaning but a great nonstop read. ( ) I can't quite put my finger on it, but for some reason, this is my least favorite book by Donald Westlake. I was glad when I got to the ending (which you could guess very early in the book).The main character seemed like a Dormunder knock-off, just not as likable. The whole book seemed like a short story stretched to novel link. ingen anmeldelser | tilføj en anmeldelse
Fiction.
Suspense.
HTML: The critically acclaimed, bestselling author of The Ax and The Hook is back in rare form as he introduces Meehan, a character who keeps the lid from blowing off Washington politics. Meehan, a career thief staring at life without parole, is awaiting sentencing at the Manhattan Correctional Center when he is called to a meeting by someone masquerading as his lawyer. The man, it turns out, represents the presidential reelection campaign committee now finding itself in need of a little professional help. So they outsource Meehan in return for a walk from all pending criminal charges. All he has to do is steal a compromising video tape before the other side springs an October Surprise on the president. A shrewd burglar, Meehan bitesâ??and shows just how easy Watergate would have been had they left it to the professionals. No library descriptions found. |
