Here's the story: A lapsed divinity student who is fascinated by astrophysics finds his best friend shot dead in a cornfield. It looks like suicide. Having returned to his farm roots near Lake of the Ozarks, Evan works as a skip tracer for the local car dealer. He learns his friend was involved in a dispute over farmland ownership that goes back two centuries - complicated now by plans to make an old weapons facility into a tourist attraction. First in a series. Audiobook © 2019 La Puerta Productions.

Host Gerald Everett Jones and his co-hosts Cheyenne Cockrell and Thomas Page discuss “Mystery and True Crime” with special guest author Marvin J. Wolf. Wolf is the author of the Rabbi Ben mysteries: For Whom the Shofar Blows, A Scribe Dies in Brooklyn, and A Tale of Two Rabbis. Marv responds to our questions, including:

1. How does mystery fiction differ from true crime?
2. What is a police procedural? Do all mysteries fall into that category?
3. Have you ever come across a story that you thought was too painful or too troubling to write?
4. How does the training and skillset of a journalist inform the work of a mystery novelist?
5. Is it a truism that social media is killing journalism these days?
6. A Scribe Dies in Brooklyn is full of Judaic scholarship. Did you just absorb all that detail over the years, or was it a research project in itself?
