This was fun - i actually want to check out the movie. Four investors, swindled of their life savings by stock fraud, meet & plot to get their money back. Not a penny more, not a penny less. Recouping $1M plus expenses ... I did figure out very early that Anne was the daughter and that diminished the detailed efforts of the others. Published in 1976, there is much that shows its age. I read it over 2 days & enjoyed it a lot. Good story. 4/5
