Hark! It's an 87th Precinct Podcast Bonus Episode.
We've
looked into the 49th novel of the series, The Big Bad City, in our main
episode so now it's time for our usual examination of the book covers
of the original editions in the US and UK, as well as some other
overseas versions. Then it's time to trawl through the music, movies and
television of 1999 for some context of the period.
See you soon for Book 50 - The Last Dance.
Fare thee well.
Hark! It's the 87th Precinct Podcast!
We're back, after a slightly longer than usual break, with a look at the 49th book of the series - the last of the Twentieth Century - The Big Bad City. Otherwise known as Nuns and Cookies? We speculate on the relevance of the title, McBain's approach to writing about popular music as well as looking what the author was up to and what was going on in the world in 1999.
Join us soon for the bonus episode, then it's onto the year 2000 and book number 50 - THE LAST DANCE! Thanks for listening.
Fare thee well.
