Peter Houlahan, award-winning author of Norco ’80, takes you behind the scenes of one of America’s wildest bank robberies—and shows you how to turn raw research into white-knuckle storytelling. Attendees work with real 911 calls, police reports, court records, and interviews to learn exactly how to shape the chaos of real life into a seamless, heart-pounding narrative. This isn’t theory—it’s a hands-on, eyes-wide-open look at how the best true crime books are built.
