Lividity, Brian Williams, and Book Picks

Published: June 19, 2015, 11:29 p.m.

b'Rebecca and the panel talk about the possibilities for Serial seasons two and three. Will Sarah K. and company have the same success without a murder mystery to solve?\\nNext, with Rebecca lending technical assistance to the "Undisclosed" podcast, Kevin takes over and quizzes Lara and Toby about developments on that show. Forget "tap, tap, tap"...isn\'t the livdity evidence the biggest reveal?\\nThe crime writers give their summer reading picks in the areas of true crime, mystery, and seasonal must-read. They also talk about journalism, including Brian Williams\' dubious comeback.\\nAnd our monthly "Crime of the Week" (see what we did there?) tracks down those daring escapees from that NY prison. Note to convicts: don\'t go to Lara\'s aunt\'s house.\\n\\n\\nCrime Writers On...Summer Reading:Rebecca:\\ntrue crime:\\xa0Lost Girls\\xa0by Robert\\xa0Kolker\\nmystery/thriller:\\xa0Dare Me\\xa0and\\xa0The Fever\\xa0both by Megan Abbot\\nother:\\xa0The Vaults\\xa0by Toby Ball (who\'s that?)\\nKevin:\\ntrue crime:\\xa0The Onion Field\\xa0by Joseph Wambaugh\\nMystery/thriller:\\xa0Drizzled with Death\\xa0by Jessie Crockett\\nOther:\\xa0Go Set a Watchman\\xa0by Harper Lee\\nLara:\\ntrue crime:\\xa0The Corpse Had a Familiar Face\\xa0by Edna Buchnan\\nmystery/thriller:\\xa0The Light in the Ruins\\xa0by Chris Bohjalian\\nother:\\xa0Animal Vegetable Miracle\\xa0by Barbara Kingsolver\\nToby:\\ntrue crime:\\xa0People Who Eat Darkness\\xa0by Richard Lloyd Parry\\nmystery/thriller:\\xa0A Place of Execution\\xa0by Val McDermid\\nother:\\xa0The Financial Lives of Poets\\xa0by Jess Walter\\n\\nClick here to get the Crime Writers On After Show, plus more exclusive content, on Patreon.: https://patreon.com/partnersincrimemedia'
