Episode Ten of the Mystery Books Podcast opened with the news that my second audio book, Secretive, is out. Review download codes are available. Email me if you're interested!
Book news touched on Oyster expanding into selling books as well as lending them and Kobo's new concierge service that comes with its new ereader, the Glo HD.
The Thin Man was the book of the podcast. I talked about the sparse writing style, the snappy dialogue, and a few jarring elements (for modern readers at least) like the sheer amount of alcohol the characters consume. There were interesting tidbits on Dashiell Hammett's past as a Pinkerton detective and his love/hate relationship with the Nick and Nora characters.
