The Take

EUGENE IZZI

Publication: St Martin's, 1987, New York

First edition. Author's first novel. Uncorrected page proofs. Very good in printed wrappers. Ex-cop, safecracker Fabe Falletti plans to retire after one more score. But when he and his partner break into a condo and find a beautiful corpse, a million Mob dollars and a stash of cocaine, Fabe must run a super-slick scam to avoid the Mafia, Chicago's drug world, and the cops. According to publisher, Dennis McMillan, this was Charles Willeford's copy that he gave to Dennis to advise him that Izzi was an author to watch who would become collectable in the near future.
