My friends and I have made movies most our lives. "The Strange Afternoon of Mrs. Sissy Swoo," concerning two insane woman trying to kill each other, was one of our most popular. 1985. #makingmovies #moviemaking #makingfilm #makingfilms #super8mm #reg8mm #8mm #kodak #kodakfilm #kodakcamera #kodakcameras #murder #murdermystery #thriller #thrillers #noir #noirfilms #insanity #inkdrawing #magicmarker #watercolor #art #artist #makingart #movieposter #movieposters

I hate to see this series end, but it concluded with as close to a "happily ever after" as a noir murder mystery is ever going to get. https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/239882181-last-dance-before-dawn #books #fiction #MurderMystery

The Trunk
“The Ask” – Chapter 7

Book Quote Wednesday BQW
A noble wife writes (in the Crooked Medium's Guide to Murder)

"A century past, they say a servant girl hanged herself, perhaps from the shame that now falls close to me. How harshly men treat women, and how fierce is my husband’s anger. I must confess for the first time how truly frightened I am."

These books are fun. Not brilliant, but amusing, sort of like the poodles. https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/35881950 #books #fiction #MurderMystery

Basement band party, cheap beer, Fender Strat, and that one guy who owns the room.

This is one of those #books that at first seems all clever conceits and funny characters, and when you look a little closer, it's quite grim. The WW II history, including the POW and the Land Girl, was a slice of life I gratefully consumed. https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/8128902-the-weed-that-strings-the-hangman-s-bag #fiction #MurderMystery

This week, a lost tale from Otis Adelbert Kline - pulp writer, literary agent, and possible ghost-editor of WEIRD TALES. This is "The Unmarked Murder Trail" (1941).

I enjoyed this #book, even though it includes a psychopathic serial killer and woo-woo spiritual elements (my least favorite tropes in #murdermystery). The strength of this series is its grasp of time, place, personalities, and family relationships. https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/49349159-the-diabolical-bones #fiction

The Trunk

New chapter: “The Waitress.”

Late shift, 1979. A greasy-spoon kitchen. An empty dining room. Then a red-haired stranger walks in looking to party.

JD and Ted aren’t done with the night yet.

Book Quote Wednesday 'knew'. An inquest report and Miss Svensson wishes to seek Mrs Ashton's help to investigate the death of her fiance on the railway.

"The coroner knew that the jury were much taken with Miss Svensson’s profound and dignified grief, and Mrs Gittens’s dreadful situation as a widow who had lost her son... The coroner charged the jury not to indulge in harmful speculation."

“Garage Practice”

🎸 In the summer of ’77, the garage was where the music happened—but behind the amps and guitars, something darker was hiding.

This was a fun read for me, because I have more than a passing acquaintance with the writings of all three Bronte sisters. Call them Sense, Sensibility, and Sociology.

The mystery took me to unexpected places. https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/44525770-the-vanished-bride #books #fiction #MurderMystery

This is the best book I've read so far in what is becoming one of my favorite series. https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/219329042-the-last-note-of-warning #book #fiction #MurderMystery

A ghost, her husband, and the man who sees and knows them both make for a different kind of murder mystery. "emotional, fast-paced mystery with neurodivergent representation"

The Trunk

Eleven days back in Ohio.

One cold-case report on the evening news.
A trunk in the Mahoning River.
And a secret that’s waited forty years.

Louise's family drama (blood and chosen family) kept my interest. The police and the murder mystery did not. https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/61407818 #books #fiction #MurderMystery

The mystery was just as engrossing as the first one in the series but a little easier for me to solve. The relationships between those characters are even more interesting as they progress. The setting and atmosphere are wonderful. https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/219329005-the-last-drop-of-hemlock #books #fiction #MurderMystery

Sadly, the solution didn't work for me, but I enjoyed the rest of the book. https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/234580239-the-killing-stones #books #fiction #MurderMystery
