<<<Where's the joy in trashing Dorothy Sayers and cosies? They may not be to everyone's taste, but they have a right to existence. How many of you hardboilers cut your writerly teeth on Agatha Christie? As for Sayers, her style is definitely dated, but they are well-written and researched and more digestable than modern efforts by Martha Grimes and Elizabeth George. What does Russell James have to say about Sayers and cosies?>>>

I only trash them if they have cats in them.

And we've already established my views on the litterbox as a noir metaphor for a workable cat story. No, I'm not going to write it.
