About this title

Synopsis

The novel that first introduced burglar-turned-sleuth Bernie Rhodenbarr follows his introduction to the world of crime-solving after he accepts an apparently simple job in Greenwich Village and suddenly realizes that he has been set up for a murder. Reissue. 50,000 first printing. Tour.

Review

The latest in the Bernie Rhodenbarr series by multiple-award winner Block has Bernie underestimating the difficulty of breaking into a posh East Side apartment to steal a blue leather-covered box. No box, dead body, bum murder rap. Not so easy. The New York Times Book Review has called the Rhodenbarr books, "A witty series. Bernie is incorrigibly adorable. Between his inquiring mind and his sticky fingers, Bernie is the ideal sleuth."
