At the Scene of the Crime: Previous Investigations

In the few months that At the Scene of the Crime has been around the blogosphere, I’ve reviewed many, many books. Unfortunately for the reader who wants to see if I’ve written about George van Hooligan’s Murder by Homicide, I have the regrettable tendency to give my reviews cutesy titles, so finding a review on any one specific book is suddenly a lot harder. So for the convenience of my readers (all three of them), I’ve stolen a page from fellow blogger TomCat’s playbook and created a bibliography of books, movies, etc. that have been reviewed on this blog, a page inspired by a similar one on Beneath the Stains of Time.
