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.
Thanks. These photos were taken on two holidays in 2001, and 2003. The upper photo was taken in 2001, when I stopped to ask the way looking for Meldenhall Plantation, Jamestown NC, [near Winston-Salem] and spotted the sign. Meldenhall was owned by Quakers who were involved in the Underground Railway before the Civil War. In the barn there was an interesting false bottom wagon which was used to hide slaves.
The second photo was taken on a bazing hot September day on the Kentucky River when we were staying at the Shaker Village at Pleasant Hill.
