About Me
- Name: Peter Rozovsky
- Location: Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, United States
This blog is a proud winner of the 2009 Spinetingler Award for special services to the industry and its blogkeeper a proud former guest on Wisconsin Public Radio's Here on Earth. In civilian life I'm a copy editor in Philadelphia. When not reading crime fiction, I like to read history. When doing neither, I like to travel. When doing none of the above, I like listening to music or playing it, the latter rarely and badly. Click here to find an independent bookstore near you.

Any more thoughts, Peter? I know someone who'd be very interested in this. She has a research project in Nazis in crime fiction...
All assistance very welcome!
The great Friedrich Glauser (read about him in my opening post) wrote his crime novels about Sgt. Studer in the 1930s. One of them, though, is punctuated by ominous radio broadcasts that indicate Glauser saw what was coming. I can't remember if the novel in question is Thumbprint or In Matto's Realm. I think it's the latter. Your friend might want to take a look at The Dancing Master by Henning Mankell as well.
If her project includes thrillers, she'll have lots of material, The Quiller Memorandum, for one.
Keep me posted on her project.
