Killer's Wedge Paperback - 2012

by Ed McBain


From the publisher

Her name is Virginia Dodge. And she's here to kill Detective Steve Carella.

An ordinary day at the 87th Precinct is about to take a turn for the worse when Dodge shows up to put a bullet in Carella's head. And she doesn't care if she has to take all the men in the 87th with her to do it.

Armed with a homemade bomb, handgun, and a bottle of nitroglycerine hidden in her purse, Virginia holds the entire squadroom hostage as she waits for Carella. And no one is leaving until he shows up to meet his maker. With all the men of the 87th save one held prisoner, they engage in a battle of wits to save their colleague from their deadly captor.

A classic in Ed McBain's groundbreaking 87th Precinct series, Killer's Wedge is a mesmerizing, profoundly relevant thriller where terrorism strikes deep into the heart of the house, putting everyone's life on the line in a tense standoff with an enemy who cannot be reasoned with.
