Nocturne A Novel of the 87th Precinct

"Just in case anybody thought the forty-seven earlier novels in the 87th precinct were a fluke, McBain's gone and revitalized the routine with Nocturne." — The New York Times Book Review In Isola, the hours between midnight and dawn are usually a quiet time. But for 87th Precinct detectives Carella and Hawes, the murder of an old woman makes the wee hours anything but peaceful—especially when they learn she was one of the greatest concert pianists of the century long vanished. Meanwhile 88th Precinct cop Fat Ollie Weeks has his own early morning nightmare: he's on the trail of three prep school boys and a crack dealer who spent the evening carving up a hooker.
