An assistant district attorney launches a one-man crusade against
the Mafia in this legal thriller from the bestselling author of the
87th Precinct series. The call comes from Narcotics, Manhattan
South. A low-level drug dealer just got caught in a buy-bust, and
he's ready to spill his guts. It wouldn't be a priority-especially
not four days before Christmas-but the thug just mentioned the
Mafia, and that means all hands on deck. It's just what Michael
Welles has been waiting for. An assistant district attorney with a
burning hatred of organized crime, he'll do anything for a crack at
the mob. He's about to get a chance to bring down the whole
clan-but his loved ones' lives are at stake. The dealer they
arrested is an unlucky gambler whose debts put him smack in the
middle of two of New York's most powerful crime families. Following
the man's lead, Michael sets up a massive eavesdropping operation
intended to trap the ruthless new leader of the local mob-but what
he hears on the other end of the wiretap will make him doubt
everything he knows about his family, his wife, and himself. From
the legendary Ed McBain, who "virtually invented the American
police procedural with his gritty 87th Precinct series," Criminal
Conversation is as realistic as it gets (The New York Times).
