E35: My Sister, The Serial Killer (Part 2)--Deep Dive--Forgotten Classics?--5 Round Burst
Welcome to Point Blank Podcast!
In Episode 35, we take a close look at two sisters; ones a killer, the other cleans up the mess. We travel to Lagos, Nigeria a place think with a gritty noir feel where we cover Oyinkan Braithwaite's wildly popular "My Sister, The Serial Killer."
We look at the work of a nearly forgotten female mystery writer from the 1950s, Helen Nielsen. In my opinion her work deserves to be remembered.
A number of books are on target in 5 Round burst and that's it for Nigeria. On to Japan.
