DEAD IN THE FRAME by @playwrightsteve follows a crime-solving duo we love: Pentecost and Parker! @people selects it as one of their favorite unexpected duos: people.com/age-gap-mystery-n…
I’m not on here much, and starting soon not at all. But I’ll be on the other place! (Still probably not much)

Have a 3.5 yr old with us this week. He was very upset that I couldn’t put his broken graham cracker back together. So I got to explain linear time and the inevitability of entropy to a toddler. How you doing?

I am hearing reports of some airlines only offering flight credits to passengers for cancelled flights.
Let me be clear — you are entitled to get your money back promptly if your flight is cancelled and you don't take a rebooking.
Our guide today in Reykjavík: “One in ten people in Iceland are writers. It might be in part because of the long winters and people alone with their thoughts. Or, as I call it, Vitamin D deficiency.”
From the folks at Pentecost & Parker: have a safe and joyous Pride.
Also Will would like to remind everyone that Pride remains a rebellion, history runs in cycles, and not to let the bastards win. #lgbtq #pride #begaysolvecrime
Caught FURIOSA with @damselinnodress tonight. It is to survival/revenge flicks as FURY ROAD is to action movies. Glorious, beautiful, tense as hell, and just as unrelenting.
Vera Bodine remembers every secret she’s ever been told. Which one resulted in her ending up missing? And can Lillian Pentecost and Will Parker find her before it’s too late? You can learn the answers to those questions for the cost of a nice pair of slacks in 1948. Links in bio
Finally, the second novel in the Pentecost & Parker series is available in Italian! I hope it’s worth the wait.

La serie di Pentecost & Parker è tra le piú accattivanti del mystery contemporaneo. Negli USA è già al quarto capitolo, mentre in Italia esce oggi il secondo, che si è fatto attendere oltre tre anni. Meglio tardi che mai! #StephenSpotswood #Unindiziosullapelle
