3.1 | Sue Grafton, Rachel Caine, & Magical Contracts

Lee and Eddie take a moment to pay their respects to the one and only Sue Grafton, who sadly passed away late last year. Without her amazing work this podcast would probably never have been made, and we wanted to share some of our favourite moments from her Alphabet series.

Lee has gotten their hands on a copy of Killman Creek, the sequel to the amazing Rachel Caine’s Stillhouse Lake, and they just can’t wait to tell you all about it! Eddie wants to know the answers to the questions that keep us all up late at night, and that is: Is it sexy, or is it scary? That’s right, you’ve always wanted to know if the Fair Folk were straight up sexy, or super scary, and we’re here to answer that!

2.25 | Australian Crime Fiction Extravaganza

What’s that you say? An Australian Crime Fiction Extravaganza? That’s amazing! This week, Lee and Eddie are listing off some of their fave Aussie crime fiction!

So take a seat, get comfortable, or start folding the washing and get ready to hear an absolutely amazing episode of Crime Time Podcast!

2.17 | Rachel Abbott, John Wyndham, & Creatures from the Deep

Lee gets acquainted with DCI Tom Douglas (out of order, as usual!), Eddie reviews a book published half a century ago (can she get any more insufferable? Spoiler warning: yes), and they are both reminded that the ocean is a terrifying place! Does Lee personally know the Loch Ness Monster? Is Eddie best friends with James Cameron? Do they have submarine parties with Jules Verne? Find out (maybe) in this very excellent episode of Crime Time Podcast!

2.15 | PD James, Megan Miranda, & All the Wrong Places?

Eddie spent the past week trying (and failing) to figure out PD James’ Death of an Expert Witness, Lee takes a trip down non-linear memory lane with Megan Miranda’s All the Missing Girls, and they try to figure out whether Patricia Corwell’s Kay Scarpetta and Sue Grafton’s Kinsey Millhone just have really bad luck, or are a bit gung ho for their own good!

2.14 | Stephen King, Trial and Error, & Perilous Pranks

Eddie has the flu! That’s right, Lee is risking life and limb by sitting anywhere near the cloud of germs that is Eddie right now. You could say that Eddie is at the centre of The Dead Zone! Or maybe that’s what Lee’s reading this week… Eddie binge-watched the entirety of Trial & Error, and reckons it’s pretty good! Unless that’s just the fever talking! Lee wants to know how anyone survived the invention of the prank show, and Eddie should probably go cancel that order of bees that she was gonna hide in Lee’s car…

All this and more in a frankly excellent episode of Crime Time Podcast!

2.13 | Crime Time’s Spectral Spook-tacular: Ghosts, Ghosts, Ghosts!

This week Lee and Eddie are haunted by the spectral, the spooky, and the downright scary! That’s right, it’s time for Crime Time’s super scary ghost spook-tacular! Discover the haunting truth about Lee’s love of ghost stories, scream in fear as Eddie reveals her abilities to commune with the dead (via Barthes’ Death of the Author, wooooooooo), and weep in terror as you realise that much like Betelgeuse or Bloody Mary, Lee and Eddie can be summoned (on your computer) by repeating their names (into Google)! Freeeeaaaaaky!

Get ready for thrills, chills, and lots of ghostly recommendations!
