Money for Nothing (Donald Westlake)

[Money for Nothing]Wow, I’m quite the reader lately, eh? I found this one via the “People who bought this book also bought” feature on barnesandnoble.com. I think the premise is a good one. The protagonist starts receiving checks for $1000 every month at a low point in his life. This goes on for 7 years before the payer comes calling to press him into service. Some would say it’s formulaic, but I found it entertaining and an incredibly fast read. I think only the DaVinci Code was quicker, and most of that was read on a cross-country airplane ride. So if you’re looking for a fast, thriller type story, put this on your list.
