Books And Authors I Like:

Too many to list: Connelly,Crais,Pellicanos; Christie, Dorothy Sayers, etc Chandler and of that generation Faulkner, Hemingway and Hammett; Marjorie Allingham; there aren't any really from the Golden Age of mystery writing, especially in GB that I don't devour: strong plots/memorable characters/elegant mystery.

Movies And TV Shows I Like:

Many of the movies from those authors; I like crime shows, esp the BBC. But I am eclectic: will watch Glee and then Elementary! I want strong plot, great characters, validity - in any genre. The Wire, certainly, Luther, Sherlock!
