Partners In Crime

Bob is MIA today. But fear not, the sensational Rachel Amphlett is in the hot seat... Careful Bob, Rachel's getting rather used to that chair. We're all about the locked room mysteries this week, summer crime lists and a spot of authorly obstruction of justice. Oh and that man over the road...  ~ Moriarty ~ Recommendations   The Friend Who Lied by Rachel Amphlett - https://www.kobo.com/ebook/the-friend-who-lied CONTACT US Email: hello@partnersincrime.online Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/crimefictionpodcast/ Twitter: http://twitter.com/crimeficpodcast Website: http://partnersincrime.online

The Partners in Crime are back and this week Bob delivers a villain-length monologue about some lit festival. Adam and Bob narrowly avoid disappearing up their own vortex, there's a dragon's pen (yes, that is a play on words), there's email faux pas, tax dodging and the possibility of an author driven drug run in Mexico... Oh, and the lovely Steve Moore – Adam's new co-author – makes a guest appearance. ~ Moriarty ~ Recommendation Devil In The Dock by Richard James - https://www.kobo.com/ebook/the-devil-in-the-dock CONTACT US Email: hello@partnersincrime.online Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/crimefictionpodcast/ Twitter: http://twitter.com/crimeficpodcast Website: http://partnersincrime.online

The boys are back and this week they're 'horsing' around with book snobbery and a dose of overly British weather chat. To my delight, Bob and Croft have both watched Killing Eve, though there's an imposter in the ranks. Who the hell is Lianne Moriarty and why has she stolen my name? But more importantly, does anyone know what GlaRRRstonbury is and where I can get a ticket?  ~ The REAL Moriarty ~ iTunes: croft.link/PIC-podcast Stitcher: bit.ly/PIC-Stitcher Google Play: bit.ly/PIC-GooglePlay YouTube: bit.ly/PIC-YouTube Spotify http://bit.ly/Partners-in-crime   CONTACT US Email: hello@partnersincrime.online Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/crimefictionpodcast/ Twitter: http://twitter.com/crimeficpodcast Website: http://partnersincrime.online

Bob's decided to grace us with his presence this week. Adam's walking the plank en route to watch a production of his very own play (how posh!). There are June crime reads and I interrupt the broadcast for a breaking news announcement... STOP WHAT YOU'RE DOING and go watch Killing Eve season 2. ~ Moriarty ~ Recommendations The Friend Who Lied by Rachel Amphlett https://www.kobo.com/ebook/the-friend-who-lied  Cold Bones by David Mark https://www.kobo.com/ebook/cold-bones     CONTACT US Email: hello@partnersincrime.online Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/crimefictionpodcast/ Twitter: http://twitter.com/crimeficpodcast Website: http://partnersincrime.online

This week Bob is MIA. So the lovely Rachel Amphlett is back in the pod seat with Mr. Croft. They're talking about crime fiction as self-care and in the process, trying to scam themselves a trip to the Maldives... or perhaps Chernobyl, I doubt they're fussy. ~ Moriarty ~ Recommendations  The Passengers by John Marrs https://www.kobo.com/ebook/the-passengers-5  The Critic by Peter May https://www.kobo.com/ebook/the-critic-13  CONTACT US Email: hello@partnersincrime.online Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/crimefictionpodcast/ Twitter: http://twitter.com/crimeficpodcast Website: http://partnersincrime.online  

To my surprise, the boys actually bothered to turn up this week. A rather cute Mini Croft makes an appearance too. Bob's been to Agatha's gaff and is also dabbling in a spot of distinctly average foley sound effects. It's also someone's birthday this week... Three cheers for Adam who's one year closer to death.  ~ Moriarty ~   Recommendations Head in the Ice by Richard James https://www.kobo.com/ebook/the-head-in-the-ice  Dead Man's Folly by Agatha Christie https://www.kobo.com/ebook/dead-man-s-folly-poirot  Five Little Pigs by Agatha Christie https://www.kobo.com/ebook/five-little-pigs-poirot    CONTACT US Email: hello@partnersincrime.online Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/crimefictionpodcast/ Twitter: http://twitter.com/crimeficpodcast Website: http://partnersincrime.online

This week Bob and Adam attend chicken pox parties, have a right natter about gender and the controversy of not having enough women in awards or 'Top 100' listings. And they're also diving into some of their classic crime faves. Bob's also rather excited about the new theatre production of Girl on the Train. ~ Moriarty ~   Recommendations Dead at First Sight by Peter James https://www.kobo.com/ebook/dead-at-first-sight  Last Bus to Woodstock by Colin Dexter https://www.kobo.com/ebook/last-bus-to-woodstock-1  The Big Sleep by Raymond Chandler https://www.kobo.com/ebook/the-big-sleep-5    CONTACT US Email: hello@partnersincrime.online Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/crimefictionpodcast/ Twitter: http://twitter.com/crimeficpodcast Website: http://partnersincrime.online

Bob needs to stop bothering boats or else walk the plank. Adam’s still on the Line of Duty band wagon, but you’ll be pleased to know the TV show is over until next year. So they’ll have to find something else to talk about next week. ~ Moriarty ~ Recommended Books   All That Remains by Professor Sue Black https://www.kobo.com/ebook/all-that-remains-13 Cari Mora by Thomas Harris  https://www.kobo.com/ebook/cari-mora-2  Anatomy of a Scandal by Sarah Vaughan https://www.kobo.com/ebook/anatomy-of-a-scandal-1     CONTACT US Email: hello@partnersincrime.online Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/crimefictionpodcast/ Twitter: http://twitter.com/crimeficpodcast Website: http://partnersincrime.online

I'm under strict orders to be nice this week... Adam's launched a book, you should probably read it. The Wrong Man is out everywhere now. https://www.kobo.com/ebook/the-wrong-man-41  The boys are also talking about the Morecambe & Vice festival where they'll be in attendance and recording the Partners in Crime podcast LIVE!   If you fancy heckling them, you can book your tickets here: https://www.morecambecrimefest.co.uk  ~ Moriarty ~ Recommendations That book by Adam A Gift for Dying M.J.

The boys are back... Sort of. Adam's experiencing technical glitches of the vocal variety, and he's just about figured out how to read an email *slow clap*. Bob's mum makes a second cameo this week... I personally think they ought to get her on the show. Oh, and they're both obsessing over the latest crime awards listing. There also STILL talking about Line of Duty, only this time, it was Adam's fault.

This week Adam and Bob celebrate their 60th show with a jolly good moan. Bob's mum also makes an appearance and Adam hauls out his soapbox in the great indie-trad rant... er, I mean debate. ~ Moriarty ~ Recommendation The Sound of Her Voice by Nathan Blackwell https://www.kobo.com/ebook/the-sound-of-her-voice-1    CONTACT US Email: hello@partnersincrime.online Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/crimefictionpodcast/ Twitter: http://twitter.com/crimeficpodcast Website: http://partnersincrime.online

Adam and Bob are showing their age this week with a spot of memory trouble. They did, however, remember to name me, and a fine name it is. Oh, if anyone knows what the Ampthill mystery is, do me a favour and drop them a line! ~ Moriarty ~ Recommendations The Hunting Party by Lucy Foley https://www.kobo.com/ebook/the-hunting-party-get-ready-for-the-most-gripping-new-crime-thriller-of-2019-1  Panic Room by Robert Goddard https://www.kobo.com/ebook/panic-room-4 Widows of Malabar Hill by Sujata Massey https://www.kobo.com/ebook/the-widows-of-malabar-hill  CONTACT US Email: hello@partnersincrime.online Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/crimefictionpodcast/ Twitter: http://twitter.com/crimeficpodcast Website: http://partnersincrime.online

It's field week for Adam and Bob this episode. Adam prepares to go back to his roots... at the zoo. And he also dishes the dirt from his field trip to the forensics lab. Bob? Well, Bob is being Bob and obsessing over Line of Duty. I also notice they forgot to pick me a name... Guess I need to plot my revenge...   Recommendation The Rumour by Lesley Kara https://www.kobo.com/ebook/the-rumour-4    CONTACT US Email: hello@partnersincrime.online Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/crimefictionpodcast/ Twitter: http://twitter.com/crimeficpodcast Website: http://partnersincrime.online

For once, this week's show is actually full of crime chat. Adam and Bob go deep and debate the emotional price of true crime versus fictional. They explore the 'tortured detective', challenging the cliché – or maybe it's a trope. And then there's me... your weekly dose of sarcastic show notes writing. But who am I? And what will my name be?   Recommendation Runaway by Claire MacLeary https://www.kobo.com/ebook/runaway-96     CONTACT US Email: hello@partnersincrime.online Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/crimefictionpodcast/ Twitter: http://twitter.com/crimeficpodcast Website: http://partnersincrime.online

In this week's show, Adam and Bob christen the newly completed studio. Adam heads to London Book Fair and meets his cover designer – oh and... me, your weekly show notes writer. But my identity will remain a mystery. But if you fancy winning a Partners in Crime mug, then drop us a comment and suggest a Stig-like name.

In this week's show, Adam and Bob are replaced by Smashie and Nicey, who prepare for the London Book Fair special coming next week. They also prepare to say goodbye to the studio with a spot of penetration testing... and apparently, their show notes writer is getting ballsier by the week.     Recommendations  Crossing The Line by Christian Plowman https://www.kobo.com/ebook/crossing-the-line-18  August Heat by Andrea Camelleri https://www.kobo.com/ebook/august-heat-1  The Honourable Schoolboy by John Le Carré https://www.kobo.com/en/ebook/the-honourable-schoolboy-6    NB - Next week's special London Book Fair show will be a few days late.   CONTACT US Email: hello@partnersincrime.online Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/crimefictionpodcast/ Twitter: http://twitter.com/crimeficpodcast Website: http://partnersincrime.online  

In this week's show there are two steaming hot... mugs: Adam and Bob, or was that coffee and green tea? They get debating this week with a discussion on the rise of audiobooks and whether society shapes what we read. Oh and there's some suspect accents thrown in to boot.

This week Bob connects Adam's subconsious choices while Adam takes a strangely silent stance in the intro. The show is packed with recommendations from both past and present as Adam and Bob talk all about classic crime, noir and black comedies.  Recommendations: The Stone Circle by Elly Griffiths https://www.kobo.com/ebook/the-stone-circle-5  Paul Temple and The Tyler Mystery by Francis Durbridge https://www.kobo.com/ebook/paul-temple-and-the-tyler-mystery-a-paul-temple-mystery  Don't forget to join our Facebook group here: https://www.facebook.com/partnersincrimepodcast/  CONTACT US Email: hello@partnersincrime.online Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/crimefictionpodcast/ Twitter: http://twitter.com/crimeficpodcast Website: http://partnersincrime.online

This week Bob is finally back. Bronzed, chilled and a converted seaman, he regales us with his experience of 30ft waves in the Bermuda Triangle. Adam and Bob debate who the real crime fans are. And they're cheating with their film recommendations... Another typical week then!

This week, Bob's in Bermuda so we're joined by the wonderful Rachel Amphlett. Adam and Rachel decide to apply to the hit TV show Hunted. They're also discussing geographical landscapes and how best to portray them in crime novels. Adam lets us in on a secret... his next book launch is in the pub... at Easter... no pressure then!   Don't forget to join our Facebook group here: https://www.facebook.com/partnersincrimepodcast/  CONTACT US Email: hello@partnersincrime.online Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/crimefictionpodcast/ Twitter: http://twitter.com/crimeficpodcast Website: http://partnersincrime.online
