by David Dodge ‧ RELEASE DATE: N/A
... it takes John Robie, who once operated as Le Chat, retired on the Riviera as an honest man, who then finds himself the target of the Burete when a skillful second story man imitates his techniques, revives his reputation and his guilt. Protected by his coterie of ex-maquisards and thieves, distrustful of Francis whose mother is the next victim, Robie sustains a long vigil, catches his thief and evades the local law. Some agile, artful Dodgoing, and a softened approach which is becoming.
