Book Overview

Stan Gifford was America's most beloved comedian. It showed in the ratings--40 million people watched the ever-smiling comedian crack his jokes. And those same 80 million eyes saw him die on camera. It looked like part of the act, but the joke was on Gifford. Now 87th Precinct detectives Meyer and Carella aren't amused--America might have loved Gifford's on-air personality, but everyone who worked for him had a reason to want him dead.

NUMBER 21 AND STILL VERY GOOD!

Another good one by Ed McBain. This is really two stories in one book as there are two different investigations going on at the same time. One is about Stan Gifford, a TV comedian, who dies while on the screen. Was he murdered or did he kill himself? He was thought to be loved by all but it turns out many, many people connected with the show wanted him dead. Through good police work Steve Carella and Myer Myers close in on the killer. Who did the dirty deed? The other story is about Cindy Forrest and a man who shows up at her office, he won't leave and beats up the policeman who is called. She does not know who he is. Bert Kling is assigned to this case. He has had contact with Cindy in a previous book and she does not like him at all. He tries to get of the case but his LT. says no. Bert spends much time with Cindy but after he leaves her one night the man breaks into her apartment and beats her up. Bert then take off on his on investigtation to find the man. Again through very good lab work and Klings police work the man is finally found. A very good police book that explains how things work and how they are but together to come up with the right answers. In most cases you can't go wrong with McBain.

80 million eyes

I found the book interesting and breath taking, it's a thriller that never stops surprising . the english is not hard and not too plain and that combination creats a fluently written book which is fun to read .
