Ed McBain's astonishing 87th-Precinct series continues with a hard look at what passes for love in a city grown used to crimes of passion.
 When a beautiful blonde tells Detective Steve Carella that her husband's former chauffeur has made two attempts on her life, Carella immediately
 begins tracking her assailant -- only to find him far uptown, hanging from a basement pipe, a bullet in his head. Who killed the chauffeur? 
And why, now that her would-be murderer is dead, does the blonde's wealthy husband insist on retaining the services of the private eye
 from Chicago? "He loves me, " she insists, but Carella has his doubts. It appears the husband is involved with another blonde, 
also from Chicago. Can Carella prevent another murder-before someone else is betrayed with a kiss?
