SynopsisFrom Michael Connelly and Faye Kellerman to Ian Rankin and Anne Perry, some of the most venerated and bestselling authors in the mystery world reveal how they create their most beloved characters., A great recurring character in a series you love becomes an old friend. You learn about their strange quirks and their haunted pasts and root for them every time they face danger. But where do some of the most fascinating sleuths in the mystery and thriller world really come from? What was the real-life location that inspired Michael Connelly to make Harry Bosch a Vietnam vet tunnel rat? Why is Jack Reacher a drifter? How did a brief encounter in Botswana inspire Alexander McCall Smith to create Precious Ramotswe? In THE LINEUP, some of the top mystery writers in the world tell about the genesis of their most beloved characters--or, in some cases, let their creations do the talking.

  • The Lineup is an excellent title about the main characters by the authors.

    It is an excellent source of information. I wish there was a newer edition and covered more authors!

  • Good addition to your book collection.

    If you are a fan of Lee Child and the Reacher books you will like this supplement which not only gives the author's take on his character, but like reviews of other authors that shaped his writing career.

  • The Lineup tells the tales.

    Most of my favorite authors in the mystery field tell how they created their characters in very revealing ways. A few I read were not included but an excellent job on the many that were. Great editing by Otto Penzler.
