Ed McBain: The Empty Hours |
From the Publisher: On Passover the rabbi bled to death. Someone had brutally stabbed him and painted a J on the synagogue wall. Everyone knew who the killer was - it had to be Finch, the Jew-hater. Or did it...? The snow was pure white except where Cotton Hawes stared down at the bright red pool of blood spreading away from the dead girl's body. Hawes was supposed to be on a skiing holiday, but he couldn't just stand by and watch the local cops make a mess of the case. He had to catch the ski-slope slayer before he killed again. Ed McBain: The Empty Hours. Three chillers from the files of the 87th Precinct. Orion, ISBN: 0752864114 (January, 2005), 224 p., £6.99
