Today's compendium of recently published mystery news articles:
• NPRs 4-part series Crime in the City, crime novelists and the places they and their characters inhabit continues with John Burdett's Bangkok, Laura Lippman's Baltimore, and Michael Connelly's Los Angeles.
• Jamie Portman of the CanWest News Service talks to mystery author Howard Engel who continues to recover from a stroke six years ago that rendered him able to write but unable to read. He humorously states that he's setting next year's Benny Cooperman mystery on the Malaysian peninsula. "There, it doesn't much matter whether he can read the signs or not because he doesn't know the language anyway!"
• USA Today's latest book roundup covers four new mysteries.
• Otto Penzler writes about Ross Macdonald's Lew Archer in his most recent column on NYSun.com.
• The BBC has some images of Agatha Christie's crime novels that have been adapted as comic strip editions.
