Authors on the Air host Pam Stack welcomes noir crime fiction author, ROB HART, who is also the associate publisher of Mysterious Press.Com.  My first contact with Rob Hart was when I received his book 'NEW YORKED" and  I blasted through it in one sitting.  It was one of the best noir fiction novels I'd read in years.  Here's what is being said about it:  “The New York of New Yorked is a place of heartbreak and murder that I highly recommend you visit.” —Josh Bazell, author of Beat the Reaper.   Also:  “One part Dennis Lehane, one part Lee Child, and one part pure Rob Hart.” —Jenny Milchman, author of Cover of Snow and Ruin Falls.  More:  “Clever, witty, full of attitude—but never full of itself—Rob Hart’s debut novel doesn’t waste a syllable…” —David Corbett, author of The Devil’s Redhead and Blood of Paradise.  It's my pleasure to speak with ROB on tonight's how.  To find out more, visit his website at http://robwhart.com.

Authors on the Air host Pam Stack welcomes David Putnam, retired cop turned author.  

During his law enforcement career, David Putnam worked primarily in California on teams for Patrol, Investigations, SWAT, Narcotics, Violent Crimes, Criminal Intelligence, Internal Affairs, Detective Bureau and as child protective services coordinator.  He rounded out his law enforcement career with a few years in the Hawaiian Islands as a Special Agent-part of a real-life "Hawaii-50″ team. He's now retired from law enforcement and spends his time growing organic California avocados and writing, with his wife Mary and their three dogs.  On his inspiration:  "I was working a surveillance out in Lucerne Valley, flat desolate desert. We were watching a meth lab. When not on point, the chase cars could to do what they wanted, as long as we were immediately available to the radio in case the suspect went mobile. Some detectives watched portable TVs in their cars, some played softball and others just hung out. I always kept five or six books in my backseat for these types of investigations. I came down to my last novel and started to read it. It didn’t hold my attention. I thought: “I can do better!” So with a yellow pad and pencil I penned my first four novels, and found it much more difficult that I’d thought.

Authors on the Air host Pam Stack welcomes Professor David Morrell, creator of Rambo and co-founder of the International Thriller Writers organization.  David Morrell is the award-winning author of First Blood, the novel in which Rambo was created. He was born in Kitchener, Ontario, Canada. In 1960, at the age of seventeen, he became a fan of the classic television series, Route 66 about two young men in a Corvette convertible traveling the United States in search of America and themselves. The scripts by Stirling Silliphant combined action with ideas and so impressed Morrell that he decided to become a writer.That “father” of modern action novels was published in 1972 while Morrell was a professor in the English department at the University of Iowa. He taught American literature there from 1970 to 1986, simultaneously writing other novels, many of them international bestsellers, including the classic spy trilogy, The Brotherhood of the Rose,, The Fraternity of the Stone, and The League of Night and Fog.  Morrell’s latest novels, Murder as a Fine Art and Inspector of the Dead, are Victorian mystery/thrillers that explore the fascinating world of 1850s London. Based on years of research, they attempt to make readers believe they are truly on those harrowing, fogbound streets. Both novels feature a controversial, brilliant literary figure of the era, THIS IS A LIVE SHOW - PLEASE CALL IN TO JOIN US 347-633-9609. http://www.blogtalkradio.com/authorsontheair/2015/10/24/author-creator-of-rambo-the-incomparable-david-morrell-on-authors-on-the-air
