Title : Jimmy the kid - Donald Westlake - Book
Summary :
Because he is an open-minded person, always willing to have his job explained to him and to improve, Dortmunder accepts Andy Kelp's proposal to kidnap a child using a method described in a novel by... Richard Stark. Dortmunder and his friends therefore abduct Jimmy Harrington, the twelve-year-old son of a Wall Street lawyer, while he was on his way to see his psychiatrist. But little Jimmy is intelligent, much smarter in fact than his kidnappers, and it is he who will quickly take matters into his own hands and manage his own kidnapping! Among Dortmunder's many adventures, Jimmy the Kid is particularly enjoyable because Westlake engages in a subtle ping-pong with his double Richard Stark and does not hesitate to bring together his two champions of improbable tricks: the formidable Parker and the calamitous Dortmunder. To be reread in a completed and revised translation.
