The Rare Coin Score: A Parker Novel (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780226771076)

When it comes to heists, Parker believes in some cardinal rules. On this job, he breaks two of them: never bring a dame along--especially not one you like--and never, ever, work with amateurs. Nevertheless, with the help of a creepy coin collector named Billy, and the lure of a classy widow, he agrees to set up a heist of a coin convention. But Billy's a rookie with no idea how to pull off a score, and the lady soon becomes a major distraction. The Rare Coin Score marks the first appearance of Claire, who pulls off her own heist on Parker's heart--while together they steal two million dollars worth of coins.
