Diamant's slim book, a great and true caper tale...[is] a great read-suspenseful, often funny, just the thing for those wondering what it might feel like to have, as these hapless, small-town criminals did, literally too darn much cash lying around. -- Booklist Diamant, a journalist who reported on the case at the time, goes into meticulous detail on how the heist was pulled off and its aftermath...The first edition of this work was published in 2002. Libraries without that edition should consider purchasing this entertaining and lightly edited version, which reads like a fast-paced novel. Sure to be in demand as the book has been made into a movie, Masterminds. -- Library Journal Diamant combines information from interviews, trial testimony, field trips, FBI documents, and court papers to provide a full account of this notoriously bungled robbery. -- Booknews
