When the affable owner of a checkered-tablecloth restaurant in Little Italy is cut down by the bullets of a pair of ski-masked thugs, 5th Precinct Police Detective Reardon has his hands too full to give a damn about some odd things going on uptown. For instance, why does a noted Madison Avenue art lover suddenly decide to sell his entire collection in an effort to raise a cool million? And why was a well-known Arab oil magnate assassinated? Almost too late, Reardon sees the connection between the deaths of a multi-millionaire and a small-time restaurateur, and the fluctuations in the international markets for crude oil, fine art, and precious metals. And now that he knows the truth, just how long has he got to live? Condition: Near fine in fine jacket.

GIFT QUALITY. Murders happen every day in the big bad city. They're not such a big deal, you know. Even when the victim is a city councilman as well known as Lester Henderson. But this is the first time Fat Ollie Weeks of the 88th Precinct has written a novel, ah yes. Called Report to the Commissioner, it follows a cunning detective named Olivia Wesley Watts, who, apart from being female and slim, is rather like Fat Ollie himself. While Ollie's responding to the squeal about the dead councilman, his leather dispatch case is stolen from the back of his car -- and in it, the only copy of his precious manuscript. Joined by Carella and Kling from the neighboring 87th Precinct, Ollie investigates the homicide with all the exquisite crudeness, insensitivity, and determination for which he is famous. But the theft of his first novel fills Ollie with a renewed passion for old-fashioned detective work. Following the exploits of one of Ed McBain's most beloved detectives, this lively and complicated novel -- the fifty-second in the award-winning 87th Precinct series -- is perhaps his best book yet.

Octavo (8 1/4" x 5 1/2") bound in original publisher's beige cloth with green label to spine in gold lettering in original pictorial jacket. First edition. The bestselling author has recreated a day in the life of an amnesiac. From his awakening on a Central Park bench at dawn until the same time the next morning, Buddwing discovers himself through New York City and an interrupted series of flashbacks that supply everything but his full identity. Buddwing (a name borrowed from a Budweiser beer truck and birds) is thirtyish and then some. He is also very good looking. Perhaps this accounts for the more incredible of his sexual encounters during the day. A disturbed and compulsively promiscuous post-adolescent takes him into her athletic bed. (All this and amnesia, too?) After a day and a night that carries him East side, West side, all around the Town up to and including a fabulous crap game in Harlem, Buddwing momentarily remembers who he is and what it is he's running from -- a suicided wife and her funeral -- and then mercifully forgets again. Mister Buddwing, directed by Delbert Mann and starring James Garner, is based upon the novel Buddwing by Evan Hunter. Condition: Gently bumped corner.
