Writer Turns Alt-Weekly Experience Into Crime Novel
It's no mystery why Cornelia Read chose to make the protagonist of her debut novel an alt-weekly journalist: Read drew from her own experience at Syracuse New Times. The similarities end there, however, as the heroine of "A Field of Darkness" not only writes, she also solves a double homicide. "Mystery lovers will enjoy 'A Field of Darkness,'" says Diane La Rue of The Citizen in Auburn, N.Y., and the book will keep them "guessing as to what happens next."
