Here's a great idea for the crime fiction fan on your list (or even for yourself): give a subscription to one of the following magazines:
- Alfred Hitchcock's Mystery Magazine
- CrimeSpree
- Ellery Queen's Mystery Magazine
- Mystery Readers Journal
- Mystery Scene
- Suspense Magazine
- Strand Magazine
In addition, several e-zines have print or Kindle versions of individual issues you can purchase, including Crime Factory, Needle and Out of the Gutter.
And even though other online 'zines are free, I'm sure they'd appreciate a donation sent their way to help defray the costs of keeping these labors of love going. Sandra Seamans's wonderful blog has a nice listing of all of these, as well as other cross-genre 'zines.
What a terrific gift idea!

My only regret is that I'm not rich enough to have subscriptions to all the magazines I love. Maybe I should check that lottery ticket...
