>Greetings to all.
>This post is especially directed to those of us who are both
>mystery-readers and who are going to Vancouver later this week.
>
>First, an invitation--
>If you are free on Friday, March 26, at 5:30PM, a group of us
>plan on meeting to talk about our mutual mystery reading interests.
>We will assemble at the front desk of the Hotel Vancouver and
>then adjourn to a appropriate place for tea/dinner/whatever
>and talk.  Restaurant suggestions welcomed.  To start the
>conversation going, I propose we all think about the following
>questions:
>(1)  What are 3 mysteries you have read within the last year
>that you would RECOMMEND to others and why?
>(2)  What are the LAST 3 mysteries you read (no cheating!).
>What made you choose them, what did you like/dislike about them?
>(3)  If you had to hire a private investigator to help you with
>a problem arising in your own life, what fictional detective
>would you choose?
>
>Second, responding to Ruth and others--
>I did a little research and turned up three mysteries series
>set in Vancouver or British Columbia.  If you are looking for
>a book to read on the plane, you might consider the following.
>
>Laurence Gough (pronounced "Goff") has written several books
>involving Jack Willows and Claire Parker, a pair of Vancouver,
>B.C. police detectives.  The first book of the series is "The
>Goldfish Bowl" (1987), and was named best first novel by the
>Crime Writers of Canada.
>
>Elisabeth Bowers writes the Meg Lacey series--about a Vancouver
>private investigator who is also the mother of a college-age
>son.  The first book is "Ladies' Night" (1988).
>
>L. R. Wright writes about Karl Alberg, a 40-someting, divorced,
>RCMP officer (who is developing a relationship with the town
>librarian).  The books are set on the coast of British Columbia.
>The series opener--"The Suspect"--was a 1985 Edgar winner.
>
>I also found reference to "Cutthroat" by Michael Slade (1992)
>that apparently deals with a serial killer operating in various
>cities around the U.S. and also in Vancouver.
>
>Happy reading/see some of you in Vancouver soon.
