VERN SMITH chats to Paul Burke about his crime novel SCRATCHING THE FLINT, editing the anthology JACKED, Toronto, corruption and policing.SCRATCHING THE FLINT Set in pre-9/11 Toronto, detective noir Scratching the Flint takes place over twelve days during the spring of 2001. Smith's two-tone anti-fraud team of Alex Johnson and Cecil Bolan are back in their first full-length novel to investigate a vintage car theft ring à la MacGyver. When witnesses end up mocked and murdered, proof becomes a relative term to Cecil. Racked with guilt while the system sputters, he covertly assumes the role of not just investigating officer but also that of crown attorney, judge, and executioner, driving the case to a conclusion as brutal as the future.VERN SMITH is the editor of Jacked, a new crime fiction anthology. He is author of the novels Under the Table and The Green Ghetto. His novelette, The Gimmick-a finalist for Canada's highest crime-writing honor, the Arthur Ellis Award-is the title track to his second collection of fiction. A Windsor, Ontario native and longtime resident of downtown Toronto, he now lives on the outskirts of Chicago.JACKED Edited by award-winning crime-fiction author Vern Smith, JACKED runs the gamut in crime fiction. From hard-boiled to humorous to gritty noir to straight-up mystery, the anthology promises to please the most diverse and discriminating reading audience. With offerings from heavy-hitters like Matt Witten, Andrew Miller, Meagan Lucas, Eric Beetner, and Allison Whittenberg, and equally impressive contributions by relative newcomers to crime fiction, like Paul Alexander, Zephaniah Sole, and Meredith Craig, JACKED is a debut anthology not to be missed.Recommendations:AB Patterson - Harry Kenmore PI: At Your Service (others in series)Alex Cizak, Andrew Miller, Scotch Rutherford - LA Stories: Three Grindhouse NovellasUncle B Publications Mentioned:Donald GoinesClarence Cooper jrEvelyn LauPaul Burke writes for Crime Time, Crime Fiction Lover and the European Literature Network.

On today's 118th episode of The Thriller Zone, I'm happy to sit down with the mulit-talented and prolific crime-thriller novelist, Eric Beetner. Eric has a style that has some of the biggest names around shouting his praise. Meg Gardiner, author of Into The Black Nowhere says, "Last chances, double-crosses, and a cop who has to shoot his way out of a fortified skyscraper-what's not to love? ALL THE WAY DOWN rips!" Publisher's Weekly says of Beetner's work, "[His] searing novel bulldozes its way from one scene to another in the print equivalent of a blockbuster action film." And Crimespree Magazine says, "Eric once again proves that he is the one true master of the modern pulp novel." WOW, right? With those sorts of accolades, how can you NOT read his work. Today, Eric and I chat building suspense, the contrasts of city with wilderness in his latest THERE AND BACK, as well as discuss what it would take to not only face the topic of his latest thriller, but what would one do when faced with a truth that must not be unearthed.

YUH 54 is crime fiction writer Frank Zafiro. A former police officer and Swat Team Captain, Frank brings years of law enforcement experience to series like "The Back List (co-written with Eric Beetner) and his River City books that chronicle the lives of cops in the great North West. Frank is a prolific writer, but he also finds time for his very own podcast, "Wrong Place Write Crime", of which I can strongly recommend his conversation with screenwriter Dan Bronson.

In which James returns to the show to talk about his new Marc Dane novels, his Star Trek tie-in novels, and some writing theory (including making location an integral part of the book). Co-hosted by Writer Types host (and Bricks & Cam Jobs co-author) Eric Beetner, resulting in a lot of conversation about James's work, the books recommended (thanks to Abir Mukherjee, Craig Faustus Buck, Cynthia Kuhn, and Maria Marotti), and more on writing craft... plus some WIP updates and a SALE!

A multiple award-nominated crime writer and Emmy nominated professional editor who lives and works in Los Angeles, Eric Beetner is a creative jack-of-all-trades with an impressively encyclopedic knowledge of vintage Film Noir. Selecting four movies directed by another jack-of-all-trades, Mr. Anthony Mann, in this entertaining discussion, Eric and I take a closer look at Desperate, T-Men, Raw Deal, and Side Street, and briefly touch on Mann's post-noir career helming westerns.Although I was occasionally (and embarrassingly!) distracted by the sounds of roofers stomping around above me, thankfully, whenever I lost my train of thought, the kind and articulate veteran podcaster Eric dove in to take the reins, which helped keep the conversation flowing throughout.

As the blue fluid began to pump into Bandsaw Bobby's veins Chandler pointed to the pistol holstered on Eddie’s hip and said, “You know you can’t use that, right? It will make a mess.”  “Yeah,” Eddie said as he reached into his pants pocket and produced a butterfly knife. He twirled it expertly and locked the blade into place before saying, “I’ve got this covered.” This week we have Eric Beetner on the show reading his dark and twisted tale of revenge 6 Feet.

In which you meet all five of the authors that Frank Zafiro has collaborated with for a total of twelve different books, and they are a motley crew:  one claims to have stalked Frank while another to have been stalked by him; one thought up every title they ever wrote together while one turned Frank's comfortable formula on its ear, and one was the alpha and omega. See if you can figure out who's who...

Writing a book is hard enough. Writing one with someone you've never met? I would have said that was impossible, until I met Lawrence Kelter and Frank Zafiro. Two very experienced and prolific writers have come together to write a gritty, New York City police procedural that one fan says, "...has it all: a solid mystery, action, suspense, humor, sex appeal, gripping drama." You'll hear me ask Frank and Larry how they managed to make this collaboration work, because collaborative creative projects are something that fascinate me. They mention that one key to their success for The Last Collar was worshiping at the alter of the creative project rather than bringing a lot of ego to the project. In other words, they always did what was right for the project itself. I think you'll enjoy hearing from these two lovely gentlemen about the book they've brought to life together. Luckily for their readers, they enjoyed working together so much that they're doing it again! Stay tuned for the next Kelter / Zafiro collaboration in 2019. Today we talk almost entirely about Larry and Frank's co-written book, but both authors have other mysteries available. Below are the links to their websites where you'll find more information about those books. You can find out more about today's guests, Frank Zafiro and Lawrence Kelter, and all their books on their websites FrankZafiro.com for Frank, and My-Cousin-Vinny.com for Lawrence. On Twitter, Frank is @Frank_Zafiro and Larry is @LarryKelter Press play (above) to listen to the show, or read the transcript below. Remember you can also subscribe to the show on Apple Podcasts.

This is "It's a Mystery" podcast. I'm here today with Frank Zafiro and Lawrence Kelter. Hi, guys. Larry: Hi. How are you doing? Frank: How is it going? Alexandra: Very well. How are you two today? Frank: Pretty good. Alexandra: Good. This is my first dual interview. So, I'm looking forward to it very much. Let me introduce you guys to our audience. Frank Zafiro is the author of over twenty novels including, the "River City" series of procedurals and "Stefan Kopriva" mysteries. He spent 20 years in law enforcement, an experience that brings grit and veracity to his crime fiction. In addition to his solo work and his collaboration with Larry Kelter, he has written novels with writers such as Eric Beetner, Colin Conway, Bonnie Paulson, and Jim Wiksky. His "Ania" trilogy with Jim Wilsky will be reissued by Down and Out Books very soon and will include a fourth novel, a prequel entitled "Harbinger." Frank lives in central Oregon with his wife, Kristy. In addition to writing, he's a hockey fan and a tortured guitarist. Oh, my. Lawrence Kelter never expected to be a writer. Well, times change and he now has authored several novels including the internationally bestselling "Stephanie Chalice" thriller series and "Back to Brooklyn," the authorized literary sequel to the iconic film comedy, "My Cousin Vinny," which is very cool. Early in his writing career, he received support from none other than literary icon, Nelson DeMille, who reviewed his work and actually put pencil to paper to assist with the editing of his first book. Larry tries hard to make each novel quick-paced and crammed full of twists, turns, and laughs. Frank and Larry's co-written book, The Last Collar, is a gritty police procedural with a twist set in New York. Oh, and there it is. Awesome. Thank you, Frank. And that's why we're here today. We're going to talk about "The Last Collar." Let's go right back to the beginning though before we do talk about the book. Maybe, Frank, you could tell us how you guys met. Frank: Actually, I think Larry would be better to share that since he initiated that.
