Does crime pay?
Sometimes it does if you can believe Hajime Karasuyama (the pen name of the career burglar) who not only made over a million a year in burglarizing, but will also make a killing on his best-selling novel which is flying off the shelves!
Especially in this economic atmosphere this book will have great appeal. Hopefully only as a dream-fix and not as an instigator of thievery...You know how many of our fellow world citizens get frustated, impatient and make bad choices.
The book is entitled Occupation, Thief; Annual income, Yen 30 Million with a warning "Please do not attempt to copy me" as a subtitle...Wonder if this warning will dissuade all readers?
