Don't Ask

Donald Westlake

Westlake's Dortmunder series is always good for some light entertainment. A comic caper novel, "Don't Ask" revolves around John Dortmunder, Westlake's con artist/thief protagonist and his group of cronies as they try to steal a bone -a saint's femur - in order to help a nation gain entry into the UN. A quick read, this is fun, often funny, and an overall enjoyable ride.
