10 Thrilling Mystery Films That Feature Trains
Americans love trains. Article continues after advertisement From grandfathers to little kids to great artists like Edward Hopper, when an American sees a train or hears its rhythmic clickety clack and mournful whistle, it stirs something deep in the soul. It is for this reason that so many Christmas trees in America are not complete without a toy train set choo-chooing around its base. There is a good reason for this universal train fandom.
An Ode to Charles Willeford
“Just tell the truth, and they’ll accuse you of writing black humor.” Article continues after advertisement –Charles Willeford Before I set out to write my first novel back in the mid-Nineties, I read just about every crime and detective book in the 58th Street branch of the New York Public Library. I’d chosen the location for the convenient reason that it was right around the corner from the Park Avenue building where I worked as a doorman at the time.

1987: The Thrilling-est Year in Hollywood History
Recently, I saw an article that claimed that 1999 was the best year in Hollywood history. Then another claimed it was…1971? I beg to disagree. It is my belief that the greatest single year in Hollywood was 1987. Here’s my thinking. To me, a classic film is basically one that you can see time and again and still be interested in it. 1987 didn’t have just one or two classics. 1987 had dozens of them. Take a look at the classic thriller line-up from that year.

It’s a Wonderful Noir: Exploring the Seedy Underbelly of a Christmas Classic
Noir stories deal with doom. In such stories, as the great Cornell Woolrich succinctly put it, “first you dream, then you die.” So, if that is the case, how does It’s a Wonderful Life, the tear-jerking family friendly Christmas classic have anything to do with noir? It is because It’s a Wonderful Life is a reverse noir. Or to put it another way it is a kind of film blanc. As Aristotle pointed out, all dramatic stories have to do with two things: fear and pity.

The Irresistible Rebellious Irreverence at the Heart of Noir
Many people are fans of the noir genre, but there is often debate as to what it actually is. What exactly is the lasting appeal behind a noir style story or film? Is it the dangerous urban setting? The stark moody black and white lighting, the wised-up hard-boiled dialogue? Perhaps one way to try to understand noir stories is to consider who it was that first created them and the times in which many of them were written.
The Best James Patterson Audiobooks and Series According to Fans
Playlisted Whether you’re just discovering James Patterson or you’re an avid, longtime fan of his wide-ranging work, this list will inspire you to listen in to some of his best heart pounding audiobooks. By Tizrah Price Mar 8, 2021 James Patterson is one of the most prolific contemporary American writers working today—from children's and YA books to thrillers, mysteries, and even romance, it's hard to keep up with such a massive number of best sellers.
The Depths of Stephen King’s Misery
Of King’s epics, many fans rate The Stand as the best. Others might point to the haunted house story to end all haunted house stories, The Shining. But for me, Misery—especially in the form of its outstanding William Goldman film adaptation—is his greatest story of all. With Misery, Stephen King plays the game straight up with no chaser. There are no ghosts, no telepathic children, no Randall Flagg on his evil way to town.

STOP AT NOTHING by Michael Ledwidge Read by Neil Hellegers | Audiobook Review | AudioFile Magazine
Narrator Neil Hellegers employs a peculiar talent in narrating this thriller: He reads every sentence, even one like "Pass the butter," as if it were a precursor to imminent disaster. Listeners will be on the edge of their seats, desperate to hear what happens next. Ongoing tension is the core of Hellegers's talent. The story's protagonist sounds like your average off-shore fisherman based in the Bahamas, at first.
