Story
=====
McBain brings the varied crew of the 87th Precinct togther in one story at the
same time. There are a total of four plots in this one, each investigated by a
different detective from the precinct. A murder, a suicide, a jewel heist and a
bombing each get their due treatment. This is one of the better entries in the
87th Precinct series and a must read for any McBain fan.
Crimes investigated by most of the sixteen detectives on the Police Squad in one
twenty-four hour period are presented. Robbery, prostitution, paedophilia,
suicide, drug offences, assassination, murder, missing persons, ghosts - all
these things come to the attention of the regular officers that feature in
McBain's books. The cross-cutting and the editing techniques now so familiar to
viewers of TV police procedural programs are here initiated by McBain. As usual,
McBain displays unerring skill at presenting scenes and characters vividly and
economically. Especially realistic is the dialogue.
Readers who wish to be introduced to an Ed McBain crime novel are recommended to
start with this one. Shorter than most, but tightly-packed, it provides the
reader with quick access to the realism, sleaze and sensation that comprise the
McBain formula.

None of my postings are my work, many thanks to the original posters.
You cannot upgrade the sound quality by upgrading the bitrate.
The bitrate can be upgraded to any number but the sound quality will remain unaltered (and the size will increase).
Reducing the bitrate, which also can be done, will reduce both the size and the sound quality.
