At The 5-2: "Suspect Has a History" by Jack Bates

This week's poem was inspired by police radio chatter. Thanks again to Alison Dasho and Thomas Pluck, who helped record the poem with me.

"Suspect Has a History" marks Day 2 of 30 Days of The 5-2. The tour began yesterday with Kevin Burton Smith discussing "Last Straw" by Susan Kelley. Yesterday also marked the fourteenth anniversary of Kevin's P.I. fiction reference site, Thrilling Detective. Kevin is celebrating with an update of the site, including poll results for the fourteen best P.I. novels of all time.

And submissions opened yesterday for 5-2 guest editor Nancy Scott.
