Summary of this Book...
Jimmy, who since he became wealthy, misses the excitement that he used to have. He makes a bet with his friends that he can break into a house, and carve his initials inside the front door to prove he's done it. That evening, a burglar called Spike breaks into Jimmy's own house. Jimmy gets Spike to join him in housebreaking. The house Spike chooses belongs to a policeman, whose beautiful daughter Jimmy had recently admired from afar. The daughter's dogs raise the alarm, and Jimmy and Spike are caught red-handed. But Spike already knows the policeman...
