A cosmetics sales rep cooking an omelet in her own kitchen. A college professor trudging home from class. A priest contemplating retirement in the rectory garden. An old woman walking her dog.

McBain had master his 87th Percinct approach by this point, this being the last one, master class in investigatory technique (

The last novel of the 87th Precinct. Number 55. I can't believe the series is over for me. I'm gonna miss this town, and these people...

“Q: Why did you kill these people?
A: They fiddled with my life.”

“The Glock Murders” - first a blind violin player outside a nightclub, and then a woman cooking an omelet in her own apartment.

Fat Ollie gets the last sentence of the last book in the series:
“Hey, Patricia,” he said, “come on in.”

“The city in these pages is imaginary.
The people, the places are all fictions.”

Not for me they weren’t. Not for me. (

I feel I've read this one before. I enjoyed mostly the occasional appearance of other McBain characters in the telling of the story. A serial killer is shooting a wide variety of victims twice in the face. The solving of the case really seems to wander, but still enjoyable to listen to. (

Pmaurer | Sep 11, 2016 |

L'indagine di polizia in questo romanzo riguarda una catena di morti, individui diversi, senza alcun legame apparente: un violinista cieco, una venditrice di cosmetici, un professore, un prete, un'anziana signora che porta a spasso il cane. Un serial killer che uccide con rapidità e un segreto in comune alle vittime.
Le grandi città sono violente, anche quella creata da Ed McBain, dalla cui penna sono scaturiti tuttavia i poliziotti più gentili mai esistiti. Umani, capaci di pietà, vivono la tensione investigativa con risolutezza e con amarezza, quasi che ogni vittima fosse un congiunto o un amico. (

My first McBain, a series of murders happen and through gun forensics, they are linked. Steve Carella and the 87th precinct realize they have a serial killer, but how and why are the victims chosen? Since this is the 57th book in the 87th precinct line, I'm thinking there was gold here at one time. This particular book was okay, I read it mostly to watch and learn about dialogue.

I will give Ed McBain the benefit of the doubt. I don't think a publisher would have hung in there with Ed if he wasn't good. I'm chalking this one up as a clunker. Not horrible, but not fantastic. Average. (
