As you know, I love crime fiction, but I also love true crime history, especially the crime history of Québec. So my parents bought me
this book from Christmas. An account of the history of crime in Québec, based on the archives of its most (in)famous tabloids,
Allô Police. Sensationalist, sleazy, yellow,
Allô Police was labeled a lot of things, maybe not without reasons. All the same, it remains to this day a reference in crime journalism. I have a lot on my TBR list, but I started reading it. There is a writing workshop coming and I intend to produce a crime fiction short story, so will use this book for inspiration.

Perhaps you'll want to share the short story here on your blog, too.
Love,
