"[A] tight, well-researched, sometimes funny book about one of the
crimes of the century, the motley group that pulled it off, and the
assorted characters who tried to catch them. Pseudonyms are
used here, but anyone with access to Boston newspaper files can
figure out most of the dramatis personae in the ingenious 1962
robbery of a post office van (the feds were saving money on an
armored car) heading up from Cape Cod to Boston, packed with $1.5
million in bank deposits from a big summer weekend. Not a shot was
fired, the loot was never recovered and, although three people were
eventually indicted, no one was convicted of the crime." - Kirkus
