Murder Ink is the mystery readers' group which meets regularly at the Palmdale Barnes & Noble. Each month we discuss a mystery or crime novel. So far we've discussed classic and not-so-classics; both old and new. We pull no punches and we play no favorites -- we're covering everything from the genre's early years to this week's hot new author, and eventually we hope to get to everything in between. Not convinced? Read some more about us, or check out some of our previous reads. Or just drop by at our next meeting. We'd love to see you. * * * * * Next meeting Featured Discussion: Black Ice by Michael Connelly Wednesday, March 24 at 7:00 p.m. This month we take a walk down LA's mean streets again, but this time it's not a private eye such as Raymond Chandler's Philip Marlowe of John Shannon's Jack Liffey -- nope, our tour guide this time is Michael Connelly's LAPD detective Harry Bosch, an idealistic, driven loner who, come to think of it, often acts more like a P.I. than a cop anyway. In Black Ice, the second in the long-running series, Harry -- in trouble with the brass (again) -- has a bunch of cases dumped on him, only to discover there may be a connection between one of them and the recent apparent suicide of a narcotics officer. Join us Wednesday, March 24 at 7:00 p.m., and we'll talk. * * * * * UPCOMING READS Our April 2010 read will be: The Golden One by Elizabeth Peters | Home | About us | Previous Reads | For any questions regarding Murder Ink, please drop e-mail Kevin.
