Title
Lullaby (An 87th Precinct Novel) by Ed McBain-Hardcover
In *Lullaby*, the 40th novel in Ed McBain's acclaimed 87th Precinct series, detectives Steve Carella and Meyer Meyer are called to a tragic crime scene on New Year's Eve. A couple returns from a party to find their adopted baby and the teenage sitter murdered in their upscale apartment. The case becomes increasingly complex with the later death of the baby's biological mother, leaving Carella and Meyer to navigate a maze of emotional and investigative complications. Despite the overwhelming challenges, they persist in their quest for justice.
Meanwhile, Detective Bert Kling is caught in the middle of a deadly drug war between rival Jamaican, Chinese, and black cartels. As the traffickers kill each other, they also target Kling, heightening the danger he faces. On another front, Detective Eileen Burke is struggling with her own demons, considering resigning from the force due to the personal and professional toll her dangerous job has taken, especially given her relationship with Kling.
McBain's skillful use of staccato dialogue and his realistic portrayal of complex characters in a gritty urban setting keeps the suspense high, making *Lullaby* a compelling page-turner. The novel captures the bleak realities of modern city life, while offering deep empathy for the detectives who put themselves at risk every day.
