Info Detail Spesifik

The police at the 87th Precinct hate kidnappers, and these kidnappers are stupid, too. They've taken the wrong boy—the chauffeur's son instead of the son of the rich tycoon, Douglas King. Now they are demanding a ransom of $500,000. A lot of money. But it's not too much to pay for a little boy's life... is it?
