Why Me? (The Dortmunder Novels Book 5)

Dortmunder draws international attention when he steals the wrong ring

The Byzantine Fire is much more than a ninety-carat ruby. As a stone itâ‚¬s worth over a million dollars, a value vastly increased by its pure gold bandâ‚¬"but its history makes it priceless. A ring that has been fought for with sword and pen, and passed from nation to nation by all manner of theft and trickery, it finally made its way to the United States. The US has agreed to return it to Turkey, but itâ‚¬s about to be stolen twice more.
Â
A gang of Greeks armed with Sten guns burst into the security room at JFK Airport and escape with the priceless stone, which they deposit in the safe at a small jewelerâ‚¬s shop in Queens. A few hours later, unlucky thief John Dortmunder, expecting a routine robbery, steals it again. Much blood has been shed for this little ruby, and Dortmunderâ‚¬s could be next.
