Reviews"D.P. Lyle is the best resource I know for a crime or mystery author. He's authoritative, clear, and extremely generous with his time. MORE FORENSICS AND FICTION makes for fascinating--and terrifically morbid--reading." --C.J. Box, New York Times Bestselling Author "MORE FORENSICS AND FICTION is...a gold mine. A must-own reference book for writers of all stripes." -- Grant Blackwood, New York Times Bestselling Author "The must have reference book for crime writers or anyone interested in forensics. Not only indispensable but fascinating, creepy, gruesome and absorbing. Dr. D. P. Lyle has written another treasure." --M.J. Rose, International Bestseller "What a fun book! Reading MORE FORENSICS AND FICTION will open your mind to all kinds of new story possibilities. The authors ask all kinds of odd, intriguing questions, and Lyle answers them all in an entertaining, easily accessible way. MORE FORENSICS AND FICTION is a celebration of the creative spirit." --Matt Witten, Screenwriter for House, CSI: Miami, and The Glades "Nothing ruins a good read like inaccuracies, especially of the CSI type. MORE FORENSICS AND FICTION, along with the rest of Lyle's medical and forensic Q&A series, should be required reading for all crime writers--they are factually detailed, wonderfully gruesome, and spot-on accurate! Read this book if you want to get away with murder . . . on the page." --Twist Phelan, Thriller Award-Winning Author "Another delightful collection of diabolical insight, not only into the physical consequences of various kinds of bodily assault, but also into the macabre minds of crime writers and the writing process. It is impressive how Dr. Lyle can answer these questions with a straight face--and without contacting the police." --Laurie R. King, Edgar Award Winning and New York Times Bestselling Author "What's more fun than reading a novel by one of your favorite mystery writers? Finding out how their minds work. Between curiously morbid questions (as they come up with intriguing ways to kill off characters and allow investigators to solve crimes) and the always interesting answers by D. P. Lyle, M.D., you have one fascinating book. I was intrigued from the first page to the last." --Robin Burcell, Award-Winning Author
