What's the Worst That Could Happen?
by Donald E. Westlake
Don't cross Dortmunder. Not even if you're a billionaire business tycoon. Especially if you're a billionaire business tycoon. Because Dortmunder has had his code of honor, and Max Fairbanks, master of the universe, has just crossed over the line. Fair bank's crime? Interrupting Dortmunder in the middle of a robbery was one thing, but having the audacity to steal the robber's lucky ring -- right under the nose of the police -- was simply too much. Now, while Fairbanks is laughing all the way to his next board meeting, Dortmunder is shaking the cops and putting together a crew. The thief and his gang are aiming straight for Fair bank's many plush residences, from Manhattan to Las Degas. One by one, they're going to rob Max Fairbanks blind until they get that lucky ring . . .

Umbrella Man
by Doug J. Swanson
Jack Flippo stumbles upon Marty Dufrain, the owner of a few frames of black-and-white film that just might show a second gunman firing at President Kennedy on that famous November day. In the lee of the triple overpass, overshadowed by the schoolbook depository, squats the Grassy Knoll. It stood at the center of the Kennedy assassination as surely as it serves as the focus for all manner of crackpots and conspiracy theorists today. In his latest mess, Jack Flippo seems to have found his share of them, From Jack's friends -- a homicidal con artist making a buck off assassination re-creations in the "You-are-there JFK deathmobile" -- to his enemies -- an oxygen-dependent ex-killer and his cognitively challenged sons-in-law -- Umbrella Man keeps Jack wondering which group he dreads most.

The Damsel
Richard Stark
New York: Macmillan Publishing Company, 1967. Product Description: Grofield has a knack for attracting damsels in distress. Even holed up in a Mexico City hotel room (with thousands in cash and a bullet wound) they manage to find him. When Ellen Marie Fitzgerald comes in through his window, she tells a tale that he promptly dismisses. And just as promptly reconsiders when a couple of hoods come looking for her. The damsel leads Grofield on a chase across Mexico, running the gauntlet on the one heavily guarded road to Acapulco in hopes of preventing a political assassination. It's a desperately chivalrous gamble for the gallant part-time actor-cum-thief. . ISBN: 0881501565. Stated First Edition. Hard Cover. Good/Good. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. Ex-Library. FICTION MYSTERY DETECTIVE. ( more information) Offered by D and C Books (formerly D and D Books) (United States)
