Crime fiction review roundup
The first here is not a review, but an essay from the Virgina Quarterly called "The Wagon" about a cop at a crime scene: " 'His arm . . . Watch the head . . . He’s leaking there.' My partner never wants to double bag the dead the way I do. I dread the fluid drips that in the smallest amount will ruin a uniform."
The NY Times runs down The Power of Three, The Water Room, and To Darkness and to Death.
In The Guardian, Julian Barnes' Arthur & George, which recounts Conan Doyle's own detective adventures, is reviewed.
The Guardian also has some short fiction by by Patricia Highsmith.
The Washington Post looks at Disturbed Earth, the fifth in the Artie Cohen mysteries; and The River House, which "reads like a suspense novel written by Richard Yates."
