Dustjacket copy from the 1977 copy of Nobody’s Perfect by Donald Westlake that I’m currently reading.
Said dustjacket copy also includes the phrase “Simple? Not on your Westlake.” More dustjacket copy should be this snappy. Just imagine this kind of thing on Greg Rucka’s Bravo, for example. “Sound like a bad day? You Rucka believe it.”
