In 2001, veteran crime writer Ed McBain teamed up with acclaimed literary novelist and screenwriter Evan Hunter to write Candyland: A Novel of Obsession; the book opens with the type of in-depth character study and examination of moral issues for which Hunter is famous, and it concludes with the kind of detailed police investigation that McBain has popularized in dozens of thrillers. Dedicated fans of these authors' work will know, however, that Ed McBain and Evan Hunter are the same person. One of today's most versatile, prolific, and best-selling writers, McBain/Hunter has numerous novels, short stories, plays, and film scripts to his credit. Better known to millions throughout the world under his pseudonym Ed McBain, the originator of the "87th Precinct" detective series, the author, under his own name of Evan Hunter, has also created such thought-provoking best-sellers as The Blackboard Jungle, Sons, Mothers and Daughters, Streets of Gold, and Love, Dad.
