Product Description
About the Author
Ed McBain, a recipient of the Mystery Writers of America's coveted Grand Master Award, was also the first American to receive the Diamond Dagger, the British Crime Writers Association's highest award. His books have sold more than one hundred million copies, ranging from the more than fifty titles in the 87th Precinct series (including the Edgar Award-nominated Money, Money, Money) to the bestselling novels written under his own name, Evan Hunter -- including The Blackboard Jungle (now in a 50th anniversary edition from Pocket Books) and Criminal Conversation. Fiddlers, his final 87th Precinct novel, was recently published in hardcover. Writing as both Ed McBain and Evan Hunter, he broke new ground with Candyland, a novel in two parts. He also wrote the screenplay for Alfred Hitchcock's The Birds. He died in 2005.

POLICE PROCEDURES RULE THREE TIMES,
By Allan F. Schwartz (Bronx, NY United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Lullaby/Vespers/Widows (Paperback)
For the fan of the Police Procedural novel NO ONE does it quite as well as Ed McBain. The 87th Precinct series has followed the changes in Police procedural an detection from the mid fifties to the present time.What a fun sampler this is 3 complete novels from the late 80's to the early 90's for approximately the price of two paper back novels.
