Castle in the Air is one of Donald E Westlake's caper novels - it reminds me of The Pink Panther movies, or the movie version of Hopscotch. It's on sale for $0.99 at Kindle and Kobo US right now.

Spoiler:

Four teams of international thieves race through Paris to steal a king’s ransom from the walls of a disassembled castle.

When four groups of international heist artists team up to pull off the theft of the century—stealing an entire castle, and the treasure hidden in its walls—what could possibly go wrong?

Well, consider this: none of the master thieves speak each other’s languages . . . and no one knows precisely where the loot is stashed . . . and every one of them wants to steal it all for him or herself.

It’s Mystery Writers of America Grand Master Donald E. Westlake at his wildest, a breathless slapstick chase through the streets of Paris only one step ahead of the law—and each other.

I had an ARC of the Hard Case Crime e-book version of this and found it to be fun, but with no added value other than the fun. Which can be okay - sometimes we just need some fun. My full review is on my blog.
