It's finally here! We actually recorded this episode live at Bramble Fest 2025, and we're joined by Brian and Patrick to dissect the 2025 Lifetime thriller The Little Girl Who Lived.ABOUT THE LITTLE GIRL WHO LIVEDWhen rising crime novelist Alice reveals her childhood abduction in a new book, the killer returns-kidnapping her sister and demanding she rewrite his legacy before cancer takes him for good.AIR DATE & PLATFORM FOR THE LITTLE GIRL WHO LIVEDOctober 5, 2025 | Lifetime ChannelCAST & CREW OF THE LITTLE GIRL WHO LIVEDBrittany Bristow as Alice KerriganMarcus Rosner as Detective EthanDirected by Dylan PearceBRAN'S THE LITTLE GIRL WHO LIVED SYNOPSISThe movie kicks off with a girl running out of a cabin and hiding. From what? From whom? While running through the woods, her necklace falls off. A bald dude who's following her picks it up. The little girl makes it to a path and runs into a woman who's jogging. She says, “Don't let him find me.”Cut to author Alice Kerrigan at a reading for her new book. A megafan is asking questions, and Alice drops a bombshell — her next book is going to be a firsthand account of her time with a serial abductor, The Strigoi, who kidnapped her as a kid.This guy has never been caught, but Alice believes that by now he's too old to pose a threat and finally feels ready to tell her story. But between the creepy megafan and her big announcement, Alice gets a bit jumpy.Her cop sister comes to pick her up (very late, FYI), and they finally get to spend some time together. Her sister isn't thrilled that Alice doesn't paint the cops in a positive light in her books — and she's really not thrilled to find out Alice plans to publicly share her story. They get into an argument. It's not great.That night, Alice wakes up to banging and booming outside her room. She grabs a lamp that's lying nearby and goes to investigate. She gets downstairs and — surprise — the house has clearly been burglarized. Stuff is everywhere. But then she discovers the necklace she dropped in the woods as a kid, next to a note attached to a brick:“You don't know my story well enough to tell it. Maybe she will.”Clearly, it's The Strigoi. Speaking of Strigoi, I know we all know what that means, but let's say it together:“Strigoi, in Romanian mythology, are troubled spirits said to have risen from the grave. They can transform into beasts, become invisible, and gain vitality from the blood of their victims.”Yes, thank you.Back to the movie: the police show up. Detective Marcus Rosner doesn't believe her story, nor does he believe it's The Strigoi. He points out that she announced her new book today, and that probably made her cop sister mad, drink too much, and leave.So it's up to Alice to figure this out herself. She examines the brick and sees a number: 55868.As Alice is walking around trying to find out more about the brick, she bumps into the megafan, Claire. She immediately decides to open up to her (for reasons I don't understand) and tells her what she's working on — and the megafan is PUMPED.Claire pulls up a blog that lists three suspects for The Strigoi:Dr. Adrian Blake – doctor for three of the missing girlsCharles Mercer – bad guy, convicted of other crimesThe Trenchcoat – a mysterious figure often seen by the railroad tracksAlice is sure it isn't Dr. Blake because he's dead. She's not super sure about the other two but agrees to investigate.They find Charles Mercer playing chess. He was convicted of some icky stuff back in the day, but he claims he didn't do any of it. He suspects someone from the Italian restaurant where he used to work was up to something shady and says she should look there.So they go to investigate. Megafan Claire talks to the owner while Alice pokes around in the back. She finds a box that looks important, but the owner hears her snooping and chases her off. Don't worry — she gets away with the box, no problem.They look at who was working with Charles at the time and zero in on a name: Stephen Gray. That leads them to his family home, which has some weird stuff out back — a bunch of dirt, her sister's shirt, and skeletal remains of animals buried there. It's almost like he wanted her to find it.They go to talk to the woman who used to live there — Stephen's mom — now in a nursing home. She says some things about Stephen that make Alice think they might be onto something. Alice also starts to suspect Claire may be up to something after she randomly bails mid-conversation.When Alice gets home, Detective Marcus Rosner is there. They talk; she tells him about Stephen. They hug (all above board), and then a brick gets thrown from inside the house through the window — something I don't think has ever happened in the history of film. They go in, and no one's there.Alice starts digging into Claire online, through the same forums Claire had shown her. She has a revelation when she sees a photo of a missing girl named Charlie.The next day, Alice is supposed to meet Claire but doesn't show. Claire storms off, furious. Alice follows her by car. It takes her to a cabin in the woods. Alice goes to open the door and has a vivid memory of running out that very door as a child. It's the cabin.She sneaks inside, and more memories come flooding back. As she's creeping around, Claire catches her. Alice calls her Charlie — which makes Claire freak out.She screams, “You don't know how badly you leaving affected him!”Turns out, after Alice escaped, he kidnapped Claire/Charlie and kept her there. She's been there ever since. She yells, “I'm his wife now! We had a ceremony and everything!”The plan was for Claire to get close to Alice, then lure her back to the killer. We also learn he's very sick and clearly dying.Claire attacks Alice and almost strangles her but lets go before Alice passes out — then breaks down crying.Stephen Gray comes downstairs. Alice runs away, jumps in the car, and drives off before he can catch her — and before her sister can make it to her car.She gets pulled over and tells Detective Rosner everything about Stephen Gray. He promises to look into it.Alice hatches a plan. She goes to the pharmacy, knowing that Claire would likely show up to get new meds (because Alice took a vial with her). When Claire gets back to her car, Alice attacks — strangles her from behind, puts her in the back seat, and drives to Stephen Gray's.Stephen calls Claire's phone to find out where she is. Alice tells him, “I'll give you your medicine if you give me my sister.” He agrees to meet her at the rooftop garden — the same place he first kidnapped her.She calls Marcus (okay, Detective Hottie) and tells him what she's doing — that he can't stop her, but he can join her if he wants.They meet. Stephen explains that he wanted her to find all the information about him for her book — but also wants her to jump off the building with him so their stories will end together. Dark stuff.Detective Hottie shows up, Stephen coughs, and that gives Alice enough time to break free and push him off the building.They rescue her sister. Alice goes home and writes a letter to Charlie.One year later, her book is out — and Charlie shows up. They hug. Turns out, they co-wrote the book together.Yay for authors.

Weirdly, amazon added the subtitle "A Detective Mystery" to Small Mercies. When one of the best things about this book is that it's NOT a detective at the center. You all know this genre isn't my usual fare, but Lehane's historical focus, together with his excellent prose, and dialogue (plus plot, duh) made this so satisfying to dive into.
Send us a textIn this episode, I chat with my friend and fellow author interviewer, Sara DiVello. Sara is a thriller author, and creator and host of Mystery and Thriller Mavens, a popular author interview series and interactive Facebook group. We met at the San Diego Writers Festival and have since become friends. Sara's boundless energy and verve for life and literature are contagious. Sara is a gem!Have you ever stumbled upon the ruins of a castle in suburban America? For Sara DiVello, that chance discovery sparked a decade-long journey to uncover one of the Jazz Age's most fascinating unsolved murders.Sara shares the remarkable story behind her historical thriller, Broadway Butterfly. The book resurrects the forgotten 1923 murder of Dot King, a case that implicated one of America's wealthiest families and exposed the complex social dynamics of Prohibition-era New York.With candor and warmth, Sara reveals her own compelling journey from corporate burnout to published author. After a pivotal moment watching her mother face terminal illness, Sara confronted the question we all eventually face: if time were limited, would you spend it as you are now? This revelation led her to abandon her stable but unfulfilling career to pursue writing, with yoga teaching providing both financial support and the mental clarity essential for creativity.What makes this conversation truly exceptional is Sara's deep dive into her meticulous research process. Drawing from over 1,800 primary sources, she reconstructed not just the crime but the textured world of 1920s Manhattan—from the cigarette-littered floors of newspaper offices to the complex racial dynamics facing Black Americans who had migrated north. Her approach to writing characters outside her own experience, particularly Ella Bradford (a Black woman in 1923), demonstrates remarkable care and ethical consideration.Sara illuminates the eerie parallels between 1923 and today. "How much has changed and how little has changed," she observes, noting society's persistent fixation on controlling women's bodies and choices, and our collective reluctance to confront uncomfortable historical truths.Ready to discover why forgotten stories like Dot King's matter now more than ever? Listen now, and consider what voices from our past still deserve to be heard.Support the showThe Bookshop PodcastMandy Jackson-BeverlySocial Media Links

Sometimes you need to make up or invoke far fetched hollywood movie plots or fairytales to try and translate some of the NRL's decision making; and in the case of the backflip on a would be Nicho Hynes finals missing hip drop charge, look no further than the 1999 Crime Thriller 'Double Jeopardy;' with Tommy Lee Jones and Ashley Judd basically explaining why a hip drop that's already been charged cant be charged twice, or in this case wasnt actually a hip drop in the first place. Don't worry, the movie didnt make a lot of sense either.It is finals time and our heroes reckon the Suns will scorch the fur off the Lions back at the Gabba, while the ultimate prize will be realised at the end of a Snoop Dogg inspired All-Victorian GF. The Wallabies will be without a veteran Nudgee College old boy for the Bledisloe and we think that's a bit average. So, James O'Connor, please tell Leicester to eat a big bowl of No Flakes and suit up, after you help dismantle the Pumas again and claim an unlikely rugby championship of course. Same to you Will Skelton, at 2 metres and change tall surely you can stand up/over your bosses at La Rochelle? We're busy trying to build an army like Rassie Erasmus did with the Springboks, only our will be better,NRL finals tips are locked in and thousands of timelines and permutations analysed. Beautiful minds come together as algorithms and calculations are written in white pen on windows overlooking the Princeton forecourt, and Ed Harris torments us with his supposedly non existent CIA agent. And like the imaginary little girl in that movie, the concept of the Panthers doing it all again NEVER GETS OLD.Life = Grapple x 100000000 + Digging it

Audio Book Connection - Behind the Scenes with the Creative Teams
In this captivating episode of Audiobook Connection, host Becky Parker Geist sits down with sibling authors Jessica Beebe and Matt Barrows to explore the behind-the-scenes story of their gripping crime thriller, Muddy the Water. What began as a decades-old idea from Matt—sparked by a spooky drive to a small South Carolina newspaper—evolved into a suspense-filled novel brought to life by both siblings during the pandemic. Listeners will hear how a real-life job in journalism inspired a fictional identity theft, how a shrimp-boat-captain-coroner shaped crucial plot details, and how Jess and Matt navigated everything from sibling squabbles to bird species accuracy. With alternating perspectives of a cunning fugitive, determined detective, and ambitious young reporter, Muddy the Water is not only a tightly plotted thriller but a deep dive into the theme of identity—and whether anyone ever truly reveals their real self. Plus, discover the creative process behind the audiobook, narrated from three unique points of view, and their dream of adapting the story into a television series. It's a lively, funny, and inspiring look at family collaboration, creative persistence, and the unexpected paths stories take to find their voice.

Monster isn't at the top of any anime lists. Whether this is due to its unconventional storytelling or darker cerebral tone , it's these very same elements that set Monster apart from more popular anime as a rare masterpiece that doesn't get enough attention. A mature crime thriller from one of the best mangaka's of all time (Naoki Urasawa), Monster offers great storytelling in a grounded setting. This makes it a different kind of gateway anime, appealing to fans of true crime and thriller stories who may otherwise never give anime a shot. Despite being renowned as a masterpiece, Monster is often overlooked by anime fans. Returning guest Gerald Lillywhite is one of them, who joins the discussion fresh after finishing the series to offer his perspective as a writer.
"Você vai falar sobre ele, mas por favor, não conte o final" isso era o que dizia o pôster promocional do filme Testetemunha de Acusação baseado no conto e na peça teatral de Agatha Christie. Contrariando não só o aviso do cartaz, mas a narração final do longa "A administração deste cinema sugere que, para que seus amigos que ainda não viram o filme possam melhor desfrutá-lo, você não divulgue para ninguém o segredo do final de Testemunha de Acusação" Andreia D'Oliveira, Gabi Idealli e Brunão vão falar, com spoiler liberado, desta obra prima estrelada por Charles Laughton, Marlene Dietrich e Tyrone Power e dirigida por Billy Wilder.

EPISODE 418 - Andrea Heckner - Crime Thriller Books - Secrets in the Heartland SeriesI'm Andrea Heckner, and I am an author of Crime Thriller Books. I live in Wisconsin with my husband, David. We have three grown sons and three grandchildren.Here's my why for writing: I became an avid reader as a teenager and love to lose myself in a great story, but that is not where my story begins. My story begins with a young girl who struggled to learn to read due to having Dyslexia. Thanks to parents, educators and tutors who were dedicated to helping me to become literate, I was able to not only learn to read and write but to find a true passion in literacy.After starting as a Special Education Teacher, I realized how little I knew about teaching others to read and went back to school. Becoming a Reading Specialist and Literacy Coach allowed me to be able to help other children to become readers and writers. Participating in the National Writing Project helped me to not only become a stronger teacher of writing but also to develop my voice as a writer.Thanks for visiting; feel free to get in touch if you have questions about my books, and don't forget to sign up for my newsletter to be one of the first to get updates.Secrets in the Heartland SeriesThis series of Mystery/Thriller fiction books follows Detective Kass Minor and FBI Agent Robert Matthews as they work to solve crimes in and around the Springfield, Missouri, region of the United States.Book 1-The FarmHave you ever wondered how an ordinary person could know and interact with a serial killer and not know it until it was too late? The Farm, book one in The Murder in the Heartland series, centers on the disappearance of Kelsey Learner, a seemingly ordinary midwestern single mom. Parallel to the investigation into Kelsey's disappearance, a pair of serial killers are murdering in the area for what they perceive to be a higher good. Police have yet to connect their victims and, in some cases, even know they are missing. Is Kelsey their latest victim, or is it a coincidence that a serial killer couple is on the loose and Kelsey has vanished?Book 2- Dismantling the FarmFBI Agent Robert Matthews came from a long line of civil servants, but it was his grandfather's love of a 1930s movie about the FBI that had made being an agent Robert's dream. He had visions of car chases, gun fights, and media releases that featured his name. Instead, he got assigned to the Springfield, Missouri field office, where he spent his days doing paperwork, going out on investigative interviews, testifying in court, or practicing firearms use and defensive tactics. When he is assigned to look into the disappearance of a young man as a favor to a friend of the Assistant Director of the FBI, no one could have predicted how big the case would be.Book 3-Remembering the FarmThe third book in the Secrets in the Heartland series brings the reader back to answer some of their lingering questions. When two boys go missing in Springfield, Detective Kass Minor must move fast to try to bring them home safely. Working with a new partner who is no Mitch Leet, she has no idea what this investigation will reveal. Is Kelsey Learner still alive, or did she perish at the hands of the serial killers? Will learning the truth help Claire to move forward in her life?https://andreahecknerauthor.com/Support the show___https://livingthenextchapter.com/podcast produced by: https://truemediasolutions.ca/

James Comey is the former FBI Director turned crime novelist who has spent a career fighting organised crime and hostile threats to American democracy. In 2016 as head of the FBI, he reopened a previously closed investigation into Hillary Clinton's emails from her time as Secretary of State, which is still a divisive moment that many say helped define the election of that year. In July 2024 Comey came to the Intelligence Squared stage for our first ever event in Brighton, where he discussed the themes of his latest crime thriller Westport, a murder mystery set in the world of high finance, plus the future of US politics and why he thinks Kamala Harris is having a positive influence on the election of 2024.
