THE HEROES OF THE CITY'S STREETS BECOME THE HUNTED -- IN THIS CRIME FICTION CLASSIC
ED MCBAIN'S FIRST 87th PRECINCT NOVEL
Swift, silent, and deadly -- someone is knocking off the 87th Precinct's finest, one by one. The how of the killings is obvious: three .45 shots from the dark add up to one, two, three very dead detectives. The why and the who are the Precinct's headaches now.
When Detective Reardon is found dead, motive is a big question mark. But when his partner becomes victim number two, it looks like open-and-shut grudge killings. That is, until a third detective buys it.
With one meager clue, Detective Steve Carella begins his grim search for the killer, a search that takes him into the city's underworld to a notorious brothel, to the apartment of a beautiful and dangerous widow, and finally to a .45 automatic aimed straight at his head....

ペーパーバック読書の要締は、兎に角一冊を読破することでしょう。なるべく辞書をひかずに、分からない単語は文脈で推理して、ストーリーを中心に一気に読む。そのためには何より面白い小説を手にする必要があります。そんな読者に最適なのがエド・マクベインのミステリー。本書はエド・マクベインの代表作87分署シリーズの記念すべき第一作。連続警官殺しを、87分署の面々が捜査にあたります。十分に練られたミステリー的プロットも素晴らしいですが、何よりキャレラ刑事の恋人で将来妻になる、耳と口の不自由なテディが窮地に陥るクライマックスが強烈。俗語を除くと出てくる語彙は平明で、洋書初心者にはベストの作品と言えます。逆に、洋書を読み慣れた中・上級者には物足りないと感じられるでしょうー

エド・マクベインの87文書シリーズというと特にアメリカでは有名らしいですが、私は初めて読みました。うだるように暑いある夏、警官が次々と45口径銃で殺されていきます。無差別殺人か？警察に恨みのある者の犯行か？
中盤から犯人像が浮かび上がってはくるものの、最後の最後までひっぱるのは「動機」です。そこには意外な事実が・・・

やや単純で古典的なストーリー展開なのは残念ですが
英語も読みやすく初めて洋書で警察ものを楽しむには良いと思います。

The first and still one of the best in the series.
1999/12/22
形式:マスマーケット
First published in 1956, "Cop Hater" was Ed McBain's first novel in the long-running 87th Precint series, and it's lost none of its freshness or edge. The 87th Precint series is unique in its ability to deftly combine the police procedural narrative technique with excellent characterization. While there is not a disappointing entry in the series, this one is in the top five. While later novels tend to be more introspective and more indepth, the first several were lean, tough, and hard-hitting.
This novel introduces Det. Steve Carella and his fellow detectives at the squad as they try to find out who is murdering fellow cops and why. Although these characters will grow and expand in later novels, McBain ably sets the stage here, and truly hits the ground running. There is no awkwardness or hesitation as seen in other debut novels. As always, the strongest supporting character is McBain's fictional city of Isola which combines the best and worst qualities of several major U.S. cities, especially New York. McBain describes his city and its citizens with a palpable rhythm that stays with you after you're done reading. With such a diverse and fascinating backdrop to work from, 87th Precint novels will never drag. Truly a masterwork.

A book that aged well
2000/3/31
形式:マスマーケット
This is a reissue of the very first 87th Precinct novel written in 1956. It deals with three members of the 87th detective squad being gunned down for no apparent reason and how the rest of the 87th goes about finding the killer.
Crime novels in those days were less introspective and more lean so McBain wastes no time getting to the heart of the matter with the first corpse occurring rather quickly. However, as with all Ed McBain novels, the writing is crisp, the dialogue snappy, and though the page-count of these earlier novels was less than it is today he still manages to flesh out his characters and make them interesting.
Just as interesting is the forward where Mr. McBain discusses how the series came into being and how it evolved to its present form.
If you've never read this installment of the 87th, or just haven't read it in a long time, I urge you to pick it up. Ed McBain truly is a good writer whether he's writing crime novels under the Ed McBain alias or "serious" novels under his own name, Evan Hunter.

Great airport read
1999/12/7
形式:マスマーケット
I picked this up for a delayed flight. I have not read any of the other (50+? ) in the series and this caught my eye. It's interesting because it is the first of a very successful series set in the same 87th precinct in a fictional city AND because it was written in the 50s. Very atmospheric, 'book noir' feel to it. Read it all in one flight.
