Lee, I met Hallie last year at Pennwriters and just adore her. I didn't start reading her stuff until afterwards. Now I'm digging up all her old books to catch up on. She's supposed to be at the Festival of Mystery later this month, so I'll get to see her there, too.
Hi Lee
I read your blog about the shoot out. Fascinating. I see people in movies take bullets and keep functioning/ shooting and I always thought it was bullshit. What courage it takes to be a police officer! Thanks for sharing this painful but important story.
Hi Katie. That is pretty much all that's involved if you're taking them from a live person, such as a criminal suspect. It lifting prints from a crime scene or from a dead body that gets a little more troublesome.
I never would have thought that getting fingerprints would be that involved. I thought you take the hand, slap on some ink and then press. That was really interesting.
Hi Lee! I checked out the blog! Gross but cool. I have to do some research on the guns used for big game hunting for my next book. And I wish I would have found your book before I finalized my current book.

Hi, Lee. I enjoyed your article in the latest Sisters in Crime newsletter. I look forward to reading the next one. I wanted to buy your police procedural book but it wasn't available on Amazon the first time I looked. It's there now, but I limit my book purchases per month, so I have added it to my wish list to buy in April.
didn't rave enough about your Police Procedure book! It is the most informative book of its kind. No writer of crime fiction can be without it! It's awesome. truly. Just had to add that, so there!!
Hi Lee. Thanks for welcoming me as a friend. I think we've communicated before, on the Mystery Writers Forum. I'm privileged to be part of Crimescene and to meet so many like-minded people!
