The Anderson Tapes

The explosive debut novel-told entirely through surveillance recordings, eyewitness reports, and other "official" documents-by New York Times bestselling author Lawrence Sanders New York City. Summer 1968. Newly sprung from prison, professional burglar John Anderson is preparing for the biggest heist of his criminal career. The mark is a Manhattan luxury apartment building with the tony address of 535 East Seventy-Third Street. Enlisting a crew of scouts, con artists, and a getaway driver, Anderson orchestrates what he believes to be a foolproof plan. To pull off the big score, he needs one last thing: the permission of the local mafia, who expect a piece of the action.    But no one inside Anderson's operation knows that the police have recorded their conversations. The New York Police Department has hatched a plot of its own-but even its task force may not be enough to stop such a cunningly planned robbery.
