Synopsis
When a larger bank takes over a smaller bank it's called a merger. When all the assets of the smaller bank - the cash, commercial papers, everything - are moved in the dead of night down narrow country roads, headed for the vaults of the larger bank, Parker calls it an opportunity. With two professionals and an amateur inside source on his side, the only thing that stands between Parker and the money is four armoured trucks. He has everything he needs but eyes in the back of his head...and he's going to need them too. The violent anti-hero of the classic film Point Blank, remade by Mel Gibson as Payback, has returned and he's as lean and mean as ever.

Review
"Although Parker keeps his cool to the bitter end, it will probably be some time before he can pick up a hymnal without cringing."--Marilyn Stasio "New York Times "
"A cliffhanger . . . . A one-two punch . . . [with] impact and velocity."--James Wolcott "New York Times "
"A cliffhanger. . . . A one-two punch . . . [with] impact and velocity."--James Wolcott "New York Times "
"Fiercely distracting . . . . Westlake is an expert plotter; and while Parker is a blunt instrument of a human being depicted in rudimentary short grunts of sentences, his take on other characters reveals a writer of great humor and human understanding."--John Hodgman ""Parade" "
