As the foggy events of the previous night come into sharper focus, it grows clear that Thorpe is a potential suspect. Emma Boyle of the Special Victims Unit gets assigned to the case.
The victim is a young prostitute who crossed Benjamin Thorpe’s path the night before. Part I of Candyland follows Benjamin’s fever-pitched search for identity, told in classic Evan Hunter style. His dizzying descent leads to an early morning confrontation in a midtown bordello and a searing self-revelation. Alone in New York City on business, he spends the empty hours of the night in search of female companionship. With Candyland, they join for the first time to write a single story-a powerful novel of obsession.īenjamin Thorpe is married, a father, a successful Los Angeles architect-and a man obsessed. While Evan Hunter is known for his powerful novels and screenplays, Ed McBain is known for portraying the soul of the cop.
