This was a really fun, quick, lunchtime read. Because it was so short, there were no wasted words. The story got started right away, and just kept going! It starts with a bank robbery, but this is not a story about bank robbers, let me tell you! I am not even going to try to describe the story because I do not want to give away any of the wonderful "Aha!" moments, where the story takes a radical turn and becomes a totally different, even more enjoyable story. You may think this would be too abrupt in a short story, but fear not! It is done in a way that just carries you along with it, like you are on a river with a very strong current, and the best thing you can do is relax and enjoy the ride!Quick thought: I have heard mention that some people are offended by some of the language used in this story, but really, we're talking about bank robbers here, people! What kind of language do you think they are going to use when they are trying to show people how tough they are? I did not find the cursing extraneous in any way, and even thought that in reality, there probably would have been a lot more of it!Quick summary: A very enjoyable short story. I highly recommend you take the time to read it when you have a little chunk of time free.
