Ed McBain - Con Man




Ed McBain is famous for his novels depicting day to day activities of police precinct 87th and officers who work there. This particular part of the series is quite good, focusing on criminal who chops girls after he befriended them and took their money.

McBain also wrote bunch of pornography novels, and is also famous as man who wrote screenplay for movie 'Birds' by Alfred Hitchcock. Good fellow, good writer.
