Description

To get as any he's ever experienced a rich entrepreneur, he is put by a kidnapping in a situation as troubling. For Detective Steve Carella and the males in the 87th Precinct, their problems are a whole lot worse. Their only wish is he may perform ball—at least long enough in order for them to get the perps prior to the kidnapping transforms into a homicide.Ed McBain provides another quick-fire nail-biter in his 87th Precinct series with King’s Ransom, a fairly complicated weaving of companionship, individual accountability, and the character of man praised by the Daily Mirror: “McBain revolves the smallest story in town…there’s nobody who it better.” King’s Ransom was created into the main film High and Low by acclaimed director Akira Kurasawa.
