Get Real cover

In Westlake's brilliantly bizarre and always amusing world, it's usually the thief who comes out on top. But times could be changing.

When a TV producer convinces our roguish crook Dortmunder and his gang to star in a reality TV show that captures their next heist, being caught red-handed seems inevitable. It will take an ingenious plan to outwit viewers glued to their TV sets, but Dortmunder rises to the challenge.

In this last crime novel from an undisputed master of the genre the well worn phrase 'The eyes of the nation are upon you' takes on a whole new meaning - let's hope Dortmunder doesn't get stage-fright.

'Westlake is a crime-writing machine bordering on genius ... twists and turns, masses of snappy dialogue and a ton of humour' Daily Mirror. * Daily Mirror *
