Review:
This well organized, welcoming volume will be of interest to writers who are embarking upon writing crime fiction. Readers of the genre might also enjoy finding out more about the process that their favorite writers go through to create gripping works of mystery and suspense. The volume works as a reference resource, to identify specific items of interest, but could also be read from cover to cover. -- Annette Haldeman, Dept. of Legislative Services, Maryland General Assembly, USA * Library Journal *
