Description: How to Write Killer Historical Mysteries—Kathy Lynn Emerson
This useful, fascinating, and complete guide will inspire and delight writers (and readers, too) of historical mysteries. These books are the most enjoyable and memorable way to experience history up close and personal—with a brain-teasing puzzle thrown in as a bonus. Ranging from the eras of ancient civilizations to Japanese samurai to the twentieth-century private eye, from Renaissance Europe to the American frontier, they open a vast historical panorama to the curious reader who enjoys murder and mayhem along with mast mores and morals. This sub-genre is growing in popularity every year. Writing these mysteries is an art, and you can learn how it’s done with this help of this book.
From Hallie Ephron, author of Writing and Selling Your Mystery Novel: “Kathy Lynn Emerson takes the mystery out of writing a historical mytery. The book is a comprehensive guide, full of seasoned advice and rich examples.”
From Carolyn Wheat, author of How to Write Killer Fiction and the Cass Jameson series: “I can’t imagine a question about historical mysteries that isn’t answered here. The past is a foreign country, and Kathy Lynn Emerson is a wonderfully informative tour guide. Do not start writing your historical mystery without this book!”
