MS Gift Guide: Blood on the Stage Amnon Kabatchnik's series goes back to the ancient origins of crime and mystery in the theater
 The play's the thing, wherein Amnon Kabatchnik hopes to catch the imagination of mystery geeks everywhere. Subtitled An Annotated Repertoire, Blood on the Stage: 480 BC to 1600 AD (Rowman & Littlefield Publishers, $125.00) is the latest volume in Kabatchhnik's crazy ambitious plan to list and document all the theatrical milestones of "murder, mystery and mayhem" throughout history. Other volumes have romped through the modern era (up to the year 2000, so far) but this one reaches back - way, way back - and really shows off the depth of the author's scholarship, as he tackles the earliest of theatrical murder dramas, covering everything from Prometheus Bound by Aeschylus (480 BC) to Hamlet by some cat named Shakespeare (c. 1600 AD), with well-researched entries along the way on works by Sophocles, Christopher Marlowe, Euripides, Thomas Kyd, Seneca, The Wakefield Master, and others. Bravo! Read more reviews at MysterySceneMag.com

To honor the late Jeremiah Healy, his fianc�e and fellow author, Sandra Balzo, along with other mystery writers set up a memorial fund at Hero Dogs, an organization that trains dogs to assist wounded veterans.
by Kevin Burton Smith
In crime pulps of the '30s and '40s there were plenty of dicks who were actually janes, defiantly holding their own in a man's world.
From page to screen, 99 times out of 100, events take a difficult turn...
