«¿Por qué yo? Policías y ladrones» is a volume of two crime novels by Donald E. Westlake, published by Círculo de Lectores in hardcover.
In these two novels, Westlake blends suspense and black humor to show how power corrupts and how institutional violence and that of the underworld are closer than they seem. A cornered individual must manage to survive in a society where the line between police and criminal is increasingly thin.
«¿Por qué yo?» is the fifth installment of the Dortmunder series; the volume includes Alberto Cardín's translation for this novel and G. C. E.'s for «Policías y ladrones».
For readers of crime fiction and ironic humor, and for followers of Donald E. Westlake's Dortmunder series.
Donald Edwin Westlake was an American writer with more than one hundred novels and non-fiction books to his credit. He specialized in crime fiction, especially comic capers, with an occasional foray into science fiction and other genres. Westlake created two professional criminal characters who each starred in a long-running series: the relentless, hardboiled Parker, and John Dortmunder, who featured in a more humorous series.
