A few comments and thoughts about crime books set on the mainland of Europe, with titbits about real eurocrime. We hear so much about crime in the USA that many people imagine that Europe is a crime free zone. In crime fiction Europe has become a real challenger to the Americans, but unfortunately real life crime especially in Britain is increasing as well.

THOMAS PAINE IN LEWES
We were in Lewes, Sussex on 4 July, and I had forgotten that it is one of the cradles of the American Revolution.
There have been efforts to have a Thomas Paine holiday declared here. For now, I should go out and take a picture of the plaque on Third Street marking the sight of the first publication of "Common Sense." ============== Detectives Beyond Borders "Because Murder Is More Fun Away From Home" http://detectivesbeyondborders.blogspot.com/
