<p>Thanks all. I've read Lawrence Block, but none of the others. Evanovich and this Tucher guy both look like an interesting change for me, so I'll definitely give them a try. Dana, yes, you're right, I need to make time for some viewing.</p>
<p></p>
<p>Thanks again. Any further suggestions welcome.</p>

<p>Brad Parks is very good on Newark.</p>
<p>And there's this guy Albert Tucher, who has lived in central Jersey since 1955 and has a Jersey girl protagonist named Diana Andrews. The novella THE SAME MISTAKE TWICE is her latest case.</p>
<p>(Sorry, but if you give me an opening like that, what am I supposed to do? :-) )</p>

<p>I'd recommend TV and movies if it's the voice you're looking for. Get the sound in your head and it will come across as much more organic on the page. There is no shortage of NY-NJ characters you can listen to.</p>

<p>Well... Janet Evanovich writes about New Jersey, and does a great job with it. It's a completely different kind of book, but the voice is good. Lawrence Block sets his Scudder books in NYC. There's also Small Town (by Lawrence Block) which is his after 911 book, and a really good look at the city. </p>
