P.S.

In talking about the TV Tidbits yesterday, I failed to include another change in network-land, namely that Discovery's Times Channel became Investigation Discovery this week, complete with the new web site, focusing on "fact-based programming." The lineup includes "Dateline on ID" (premiering Wednesday, January 30 at 10 p.m.), which is hosted by NBC anchor Lester Holt with "Dateline NBC" stories exclusively for ID’s audience; "Fugitive Strike Force," (Tuesdays at 10 PM starting January 29), "a fast-action program documenting three levels of fugitive-hunting units in Nevada including the U.S. Marshals, the Las Vegas SWAT and regional bounty hunters"; and "Life of Crime" (which "puts us in the minds of the actual detectives and forensic experts as they solve true crime mystery").

Marilyn Stasio's latest crime fiction reviews will appear in the January 27th edition of The New York Times, but you can find them online today.  She takes a look at Loren D. Estleman’s GAS CITY, Minette Walters's THE CHAMELEON’S SHADOW, Cornelia Read’s THE CRAZY SCHOOL (which continues the adventures of Madeline Dare in Read's second outing with that character), and Christopher G. Moore’s THE RISK OF INFIDELITY INDEX.
