It is 1951. He reports at once to an eccentric benefactor, who helps him find a job. When he calls, as required by his conditions of parole, on Boons district attorney, he falls under the spell of Darlene, the D.A.s receptionist, who, unfortunately for him, already has a boyfriend. In a gallant attempt to be of help to Darlene, Alan insults Boons crime boss, a woman named Cal. Cal has him beaten and left unconscious in the snow. Alans vow for revenge advances when he learns Cal is hiding money from the IRS, but he doesnt learn where she is hiding it until after he has had a fling with one of Cals seductive young employees. Darlene discovers that dalliance, and Alans hopes for a relationship closer than friendship with her fly out the window. But he succeeds with his crime, and then he must escape from Boon with his loot. Who, he asks, can be a better help in his escape than Darlene, the lovely receptionist of Boons chief law-enforcement officer?</p>...(*_*)9781962931274_<p>A crime-comedy called "smart and funny" by Kirkus Reviews and made an Editors Pick by Publishers Weekly, Mr. Sweetcheeks in Alaska pits its very nice convicted-killer hero against both the forces for good and the forces for evil in a small, Alaska town, circa 1950.
