" Good cop drama. Typical of Ed. "

" This was one of McBain's 87th Precinct novels. It seemed quite dated, published in 1987, but was a pretty good story. Not one of his best but worth a read. "
— Sue, 10/20/2013 -
" One of the most compelling of McBain's 87th Precinct novels. Certainly one of the bleakest. "
