    Now I'm super fascinated by this case, but it seems like there are still a lot of unanswered questions and issues, including conflicting wtiness testimony and posible police misconduct/involvement?: [www.helpfindthemissing.org]

    @mepo - Robert Cornhole invented it: It's not the best but I liked Inspector Lynley Mysteries. Because he is pretty. I don't require a lot from my television detectives.

    My Mom has read every Agatha Christie book and watched every crime series ever made in the US and UK (seriously, I can list them). She's either going to solve a crime or kill one of us and get away with it. I better go apologise for my messy room as a teen and for her spending countless hours searching for that A La Carte Kitchen that Christmas.

    Who hears about a dead body and thinks, "gee, I'd like to get a look of that myself"? I mean, good for her for solving the case, but what an odd compulsion she had.

    @morethanrain: Seriously. I love shows like Bones, but the scary images are safely contained in a little box on my entertainment center. I don't want to get up close and personal with real-world depravity.

    I'm going with Josie Bisset, from Melrose Place, with Jason Priestley, from 90210, as the veteran reporter/love interest. Thoughts?

    I think I will start small-time, with petty theft and mail fraud.


    And... I'm actually kind of nervous about those investigations.

    That's one brave chick. I don't think I'd have the balls to pull that off for a number of reasons.

    I want to say "Kudos" and "What the fuck were you thinking?" at the same time. I guess this is what parent's feel.

    @all: Thanks, you guys! Unfortunately, I'm not studying exclusively women crime writers, which I would like to do at some point. Thesis is on LA/S. CA-based crime fiction; historio-cultural examination of hard-boiledness developing in S. CA 1920-present day. Thanks for your interest! Kisses to my fellow crime lovers.

    that would be my dream PHD. But it would all have to be on Dame Agatha. If this was one of her books, this lady would be the 2nd body in many cases. @JerkoftheMonth: Mmm PHD in crime writing thanks for new dream.
