Dortmunder stories are amusing, but this one would best be served by being a short story rather than the short novel tht it is. The premise of stealing a bank, temporarily located in a mobile home trailer while construction of a new facility is going on is certainly entertaining and humorous, the book even in its compact form drags on. If you love the antics of Dortmunder and his cohorts, you will probably like this as it follows the same formula as others. However, if you are looking for a humorous story that is more than absurdity then pass on this one.
