Romance continued or ... not?
30 April 2000
Format:Mass Market Paperback
Nocturne was one of the 87th Precinct novels I looked forward to most because I was hoping it will continue the stories started in Romance. I devour every Ed McBain/Evan Hunter book and I still have to find one that I did not love. Nocturne is still great, but not what I expected. Maybe that is why it left me a bit disappointed and betrayed. Nevertheless, it is another stellar addition to my library and I would not give it up for the world. Go, 87th Precinct, go!
