A Useful Website for Mystery Fans

by

One of the most useful book-related websites that I have found is www.stopyourekillingme.com.
If you love mysteries, this is a site that you need to get to know.
Need to know what book comes next in your series?
Want to know who won this year’s Edgar Awards?
Does your favorite author have a pseudonym?
You can access information by author’s last name, or character’s last name at the top of the page.
They even offer read-alike suggestions.
The page for Elizabeth Peters is a great example of the sort of information that this site offers. There you will find the names that she writes under, a link to her website, her books divided out by main character (complete with publication date), and even a notation about an award that she won. So head over to www.stopyourekillingme.com and have some fun!
