Re: RARA-AVIS: realism and reality

Sun, 16 Aug 1998 14:05:53 -0700 This thread reminds me of the John Harvey (Charles Resnick) and Peter
Robinson (Inspector Banks) [as well as that great Deborah Crombie's
kINCAID/jAMES books) that none of these folks have any contact (except
for Ms. Crombie being married to a copper) with being a policeman for
former policeman, yet their books seem terribly real to me. How about a
comment on Paul Bishop's books--except for the horrible name Faye Croker
and a woman's point of view--they must be real because he is really a
policeman.
