ABOUT THIS SESSION

What happens when investigation begins with questions instead of a badge? Crime fiction writers and crime reporters come together to discuss the real cases that inspired their stories and how reporting instincts shape compelling mysteries. From chasing leads to uncovering hidden truths, this conversation explores how journalism sharpens authenticity, tension, and perspective in crime writing.
