  • Book: Ninety-Two In The Shade by Thomas McGuane
    Jan 17 2021
    I really love Thomas McGuane. His 92 In The Shade is an overlooked crime novel in the UK, and Thomas is much more famous in his native USA. I've found a way to include this bonus episode here on Mystery and Intrigue but it's from a year ago when I was still learning how to podcast, and it was originally part of my rare books show. So don't worry too much if people start sniffing the pages! You can find out more at www.crimespies.com. https://medium.com/crime-spies/ninety-two-in-the-shade-by-thomas-mcguane-629bf547ebe2 (You can read my article about Thomas here.) Support this podcast

  • S2/E5: The Mystery of Claudia Lawrence
    Jan 14 2021
    My review of a more recent cold case, the disapperance of Claudia Lawrence. You can read the companion article on Medium: https://medium.com/crime-spies/the-mystery-of-claudia-lawrence-26dc92ee1292 This episode started life in my Citizen Detective podcast which I have now incorporated here. Each season we will alternate between crime and spies, and sometimes we might mix the two. But the theme is mystery and intrigue in all its forms. I am open to new ideas for titles: how does "Mystery & Intrigue" sound?! Support this podcast
