Then a monumental city event occurs: a bank is relived of its cash. The bandits modus operandi is almost as twisted as the tale of his discovery. Peter Decoville decides he is the man to solve the crime in hopes of further his fading career. The task is not easy. He is aided in his efforts by a Mensa-level newspaper manager, a donut-infested police department, a silent auto mechanic, an automobile entrepreneur, and a less than precocious friend. The writer does not scare want to alarm people, but the story does have a light under tone of values. It is not intrusive, however, but the reader must not expect one who has seen the world, written plays, poetry, and history to avoid any hint of morality in his writings. Can you?
