Triumph of the Thriller

Thanks for the link, Linda. Judging by the exerpt, it's a well-written and enjoyable piece of criticism. I will buy it. I don't normally write thrillers, but
I've been thinking about taking a break from the cosy scene and this might just be the book to get me started.

By the way, I laugh everytime I see your avatar. A local acquaintance used to have an emu named The Geek, and that curious expression is sooo like him. (I believe The Geek is now living on a miniature cow farm in the mid-West.)
