It’s no mystery why this Mystery Mixer is a perennial fav at RT! Join us for free food, free books and other giveaway goodies. Your favorite mystery and suspense writers, including “Monk” and “Diagnosis Murder” novelist/screenwriter Lee Goldberg, will unveil their latest and future thrill-rides and whodunnits.

After that, I’m participating in a panel — Private Dicks, Dames and Immortal Words

“Don’t worry about the story’s goofiness. A sensible one would have had us all in the cooler.” (The Maltese Falcon, 1941)

Classic Hollywood noir has given us memorable characters and you can do the same in your writing! Today’s masters of mystery will clue you in on how to create villains, victims and detectives with undying appeal.

Captain: Carole Nelson Douglas

Panelists: Lori Armstrong (aka Lorelei James), Brett Battles, Lee Goldberg, Sue Ann Jaffarian, William Link
