Publisher Description

“Kill me if you can.”

Local thug Pepe Miranda’s open challenge to the police has pushed July’s heat to a boiling point. His latest crime elevated him to the top of the 87th Precinct’s most wanted list, and now his dare is earning him street cred as well. With the city’s most dangerous gangs mobilized for an epic showdown, the fate of the precinct hangs in the balance.

But Lieutenant Peter Byrnes and his detectives are ready for anything. They certainly aren’t going to let a challenge like that lie—not from someone like Miranda and not when a tip puts them hot on his trail. As the men of the 87th close in, they could be heading into a deadly gunfight that blows their city apart.

Ed McBain’s See Them Die is a visceral journey into the heart of the 87th Precinct’s meanest streets, a gritty, adrenaline-fueled freight train that hurtles toward its explosive conclusion.

"I can never give a McBain book less than 5 stars and this one is no exception. A story of standing up to peer pressure and doing the "right thing" (among other themes), with the usual great cast of characters."

    " I give/gave McBain credit for changing the structure of his 87th precinct novels every now and then, but the tick-tock style here didn't work for me. (In other words, the entire story unfolds over the course of a few hours but I don't enjoy his minute-to-minute stuff so much.) "

    " 4 stars for the prejudice and reactions to it and for the peer pressure and reactions. The character studies drove the story and made this one of my favorite 87th Precinct novels. "

    " Very Good; a day in the life of the 87th precinct with Puerto Rican gangs sorting out while life goes on all around them. "

    " One of the weaker books in the 87st Street Precinct series, primarily because most of the story is about a desperado and some kids in a bad section of Isola. Little happens involving the main characters of the series -- in fact, there is one important thing, but I ain't saying. "
