Critiques

a publié une critique de The pusher par Ed McBain (87th Precinct, #3)

Good old-fashioned police procedural

I love old crime novels; a window into another world. Little depth, but expertly done. McBain - Evan Hunter - is a competent writer in command of his subject and it's all done and dusted in under 200 pages. What more do you want? You can even smile whimsically at the 1950s Isola drug underworld - so innocent in comparison to modern times.
