Good Info for US-Based Crime Writing4
I wish that the Howdunit Series would come out with a series of books for writing an English crime novel. I didn't have any indication that this would be useful only for someone writing a book set in the US, but had this been the case for me, I could see that I would have used it a lot! It has a lot of useful information on how a private detective would go about his job and how other writers have used private eyes in their works. Unfortunately, it didn't have what I needed for a book set in the UK!
