Who Stole Sassi Manoon? is a classic Westlake's comic caper with
mildly eccentric characters, where three reluctant one off criminals (after just
one big score so they can retire from their pathetic lives) have a great plan,
but the plan doesn't tell them what to do when obstacles arise such as truck
drivers not prepared to give over their truck just because you are holding a gun
on them. Although it is not an hilarious novel it is still very funny in scenes
as this naive trio, following a full proof plan designed by Starnap (Selective
Timed Abstract Reactional Neutronic Abduction Positioner), a super computer and
only friend of the plan's organizer Kelly (guy with a girl's name) find that
kidnapping a movie star isn't as easy as they thought it would be.
