FBI

Fresh Meat: Black Sheep by CJ Lyons

By Terrie Farley Moran

February 25, 2013

Black Sheep by CJ Lyons is the sequel to Blind Faith featuring FBI agent Caitlyn Tierney (available February 26, 2013). As a thriller writer, CJ Lyons has a stellar reputation, but I must confess that I was never a loyal follower—until now. Oh sure, I’d heard lots of noise among readers about how they simply…

Mads Mikkelsen will play the murderous Dr. Lecter on NBC's Hannibal

Is NBC’s Hannibal “Following” the Leader?

By Crime HQ

February 19, 2013

Watch this trailer and see! Okay, okay—it’s not a completely fair question, since both NBC’s Hannibal and Fox’s The Following (which we’re currently recapping) were announced last year. And of course, Dr. Lecter’s a notorious character from way back. However, both new shows do center on serial killing by multiple killers, as well as intricate…

Caught in the Web of Martha Ivery

By Scott Adlerberg

January 29, 2013

Editor’s note: When we first heard from Scott Adlerberg, we gave him a hard time. He’d approached us about a “pre-pub” excerpt of a book we discovered had been out for a while, though with a different press than he now has. However, when he told us his tale, we not only understood how it…

J. Edgar Hoover building, Washington D.C.headquarters of the Federal Bureau of Investigation

Gulp, Another Crime HQ Whose Days Are Numbered

By Crime HQ

December 17, 2012

First, it was New Scotland Yard, and now the FBI’s Hoover building is on the blocks? These are iconic Crime HQs, and *looks around nervously* even when iconic means hideous, we’ve grown accustomed to its facade in our crime shows and stories… According to Pete Yost of the AP, via the Star Tribune: Just six…

Kevin Bacon and James Purefoy

Thoughts on The Following with Kevin Bacon and James Purefoy

By Laura K. Curtis

November 8, 2012

At New York Comic Con last month, I watched the premiere of The Following, Fox’s serial killer drama starring Kevin Bacon and James Purefoy, which will premiere January 21st. It’s taken this long for me to make sense of how I felt about it. There’s no question, it’s daring. It absolutely pushes the boundaries. My…

Kay Hooper, the perfect storm of an author?

Kay Hooper: The Perfect Read for a Dark and Stormy Night

By Leigh Neely

November 4, 2012

I’ve been a Kay Hooper fan for a long time. When I read Pepper’s Way back in the early ’80s, I knew I had to find more books by this entertaining writer. She’s passionate, provocative, and prolific—three great writer gifts in my opinion. Her early romances were lively and engaging, especially those written for the…

The 1950s: Death and the American Dream

By Ania Ahlborn

October 26, 2012

I’ve always been intrigued by the 1950s. On one hand, you’ve got poodle skirts and soda shops and greaser guys in fast cars and leather jackets; on the other, there’s Mom, her full-skirted dress pulling freshly baked cookies out of the oven just as Dad walks in the door with a big smile and a…

Kate

By Crime HQ

August 23, 2012

Are you a history buff? A gangster aficionado? Both? Well, we’ve got the house for you! This week, Kate “Ma” Barker’s house went on the market. The house in question, located 62 miles from Orlando in Ocklawaha, Florida, has been restored to its former glory with one tiny exception—the bullet holes from a shootout with…

Sleepy Hollow, the Tim Burton version

Head to Head for the Headless Horseman

By Crime HQ

August 9, 2012

Which of the following TV shows do you think you’d watch? 1. “Ichabod Crane . . . joins up with Sleepy Hollow’s tough female sheriff to battle forces of good and evil.” 2. “Ichabod Crane in a black FBI suit, investigating a rash of ritual beheadings in the legendary burg of Sleepy Hollow.” Well, both…
