This week, join Stella as she chats with the legendary Prof Jean Murley, author of the foundational book 'The Rise of True Crime.' 

Regular listeners will know Stella always turns to Murley's book for quotes, definitions, explanations, so it was an absolute pleasure to talk to Jean about where true crime is now, what it says about us, and the potential cultural work that the genre can do. 

Book details: 

Murley, J. (2008). The Rise of True Crime: 20th Century Murder and American Popular Culture. Praegar Press.
