The most-talented Mike Ripley is back with another of his Getting Away With Murder columns.
Among his random thoughts this time: a look at some of the myriad award nominees making the rounds again at this time of year; Ripley's suggestion for a Richard the Third Award "for mystery writers who have been thought dead and forgotten (for anything up to 528 years)," the awards ceremony to take place in a car park (similar to the one where Richard's bones were discovered this year); sort of a review of the "Murder in the Library" exhibition; reviews of a couple of new thrillers; more on historical mysteries; Robert B. Parker in London; other musings on the crime fiction scene in the U. K.; and a remarkably interesting misreading of a book's title. Only Ripley could tie all that together.
It's all part of the latest edition of the Shots ezine. As Ripley would (and does) say, "Pip! Pip!"
