I have The Drop on my TBR list. Mum bought it for me for Xmas. I take it The Drop is one of Connelly's better works? Because when he is on he is on. I've read one of his that was only average, City of Bones.

The universality of the laundering criminal offence

In the FBI action against Kim Dotcom uploaders of copy right protected items now also face a laundering charge. It is a good example of the way in which the state bends and strechted the legal tools which were once put into place for a specific threat: first against drug money, then against organised crime (whatever that means), to protect the integrity of the financial system (but undermined by its own most non-integre…

Creating Character Quirks

It’s a classic image, somewhat created by those who portrayed Holmes on stage. Maybe some remember Holmes playing the violin during periods when a case particularly perplexed him.
