Book summary

Burglar Bernie Rhodenbarr prefers to work alone--the risks are lower and the company is better. Offered $5,000 for a simple job, Bernie breaks into an apartment but discovers that the box he came for is missing and there is a dead body on the floor. Accused of murder, Bernie holes up in a friend's apartment where, with the help of a very lovely neighbor, he tries to figure out who set him up--and why.
