Rob an entire town? Why the hell not? Swoop in like commandos, take 2 banks, payroll for the mine, jewelers and anything else. It can be done even though it sounds like science fiction. It should be done. Of course there are complications, you need the right men and good men are hard to find, you need people who are single-minded about the job, people who won’t be distracted. Well Parker isn’t convinced initially but once engaged, he is fully committed. Westlake in his Richard Stark incarnation is fully committed – no frills here, just a score, a heist with all its complications. Count me in.
