Fool's Paradise

What do an ex-con, a bank guard, a con man, a musclebound fireman and a savvy divorcee have in common? In "Fool's Paradise," these five strangers come together with a plan to rob a bank.

Set in beautiful Coronado and San Diego, "Fool's Paradise" is a hilarious caper about those who impersonate royalty and those who merely think they should be kings. For these fools, the keys to the kingdom lie inside the vault at the National Bank of Coronado.

As usual in Steve Brewer's comic crime novels, things go badly in unexpected ways for the robbers and for the lawmen chasing after them, culminating in an ending you'll never forget.

"An intriguing and highly enjoyable tale." -- Ray Walsh, Lansing State Journal

"I'm rather concerned that I appear to have fallen in love with such a pack of misfits, murderers and miscreants, but that's always the way with Steve Brewer's books." -- Donna Moore, reviewingtheevidence.com.
