Book Review: 4.5 stars!
Summary: 5 Stars
awesome book! really cool parker style action, taking a bunch of cash but then having to hang out with the guy in charge of security for the place he robbed and having to fight his way out with desk drawers and his fists. a tie in with some loser thieves trying to mess with parker and an amazing shoot out at the end with a veteran ex partner thief. ok it wasn't an option but this book gets 4.5 stars, not five. why? because there are some weird things in the book that are uncharacteristic for the series and just silly over all. at the beginning parker and friends rob a stadium, perfect and classic. but then they stay at the crime scene, in the parking lot of the stadium in a construction trailer with a lock on the door and the police jiggle the lock a few times and then leave. really??? in other books parker has said it's bad to stay so close to the scene! and even if he didn't say that it's common sense, the police would cut the lock off immediately and search inside! then when leaving, parker BLOWS UP THE TRAILER!!! what??? so he could get caught for armed robbery, that would be rough, but blowing up something would get a whole new list of charges added! not to mention the police will look a lot harder for someone setting off bombs than just a thief! the atf and fbi might even be after him! totally pointless! it said it was to get rid of evidence... how about you just leave the scene of the crime instead of sitting in a trailer, creating evidence and then blowing it up! and he sets it off when they are like three blocks away! gah! stark, may he rest in peace :(,what were you thinking? parker has always been a genius in the past! what happened?
anyway the rest of the story though is good stuff! classic stark and very entertaining.
