Blown   Mark Haskell Smith
Novel about a Wall Street investment banker who embezzles $17 million and takes off for the Caribbean, and the people the bank sends to get the money back. Written in Smith’s usual engaging style, but without the usual affectionate humor for the characters of his previous books. And, after an entire narrative of fatalism, a surprising and unconvincing ending. Still a quick, entertaining read.
