Son of Sam novel reviewed by Breslin and Schaap
Jimmy Breslin and Dick Schaap produce a novel based on the Son of Sam killings in New York City, 1976 and 1977. The critics note it exploits the case, treats the killer as background, and centers on politics, power, and urban crisis, with a grim, darkly comic tone.
