Publisher's summary

The only person Detective Bert Kling cares about in this world is his fiancée, Claire Townsend. And when her body is found slain at the infamous “bookstore massacre,” Bert and every detective in the precinct is determined to get the man responsible. To do so, they’re going to have to figure out the connection between a junkie, a professor, a bookstore owner, and the beautiful fiancée of a cop. When they do, there will be nowhere for the killer to hide.

A devastating look at the personal side of a hardened detective, Lady, Lady, I Did It! is a gut-wrenching addition to Ed McBain’s 87th Precinct series, and it paints, in sharp relief, the squad room’s familial bonds and the price paid for violating its sanctity.

I'm hooked now, going for #15.

First of all, Dick Hill is absolutely the best, I'd love to watch him do this because it can't be just reading. This story is heartbreaking in a couple of different ways and if you've been through the the first 13 you probably feel as I do, these characters are family. This story has some very sad aspects to it that will keep you riveted. Extremely well done.

Nice tight plot

Excellent story. One of my favorites of the series. Strong characters. Hill's performance is up to his usual high standards.
