My best friend's husband is a retired police chief and my resource for law enforcement questions. My son-in-law is a pathologist (and assistant county coroner) and my resource for medical questions. After that, it's the internet for research. I, too, believe it's important to be accurate.

Plus my dad wrote police story scripts for the Manhunt radio show years ago. The Tulip Shirt Murders sounds extremely interesting. Love the title, and cover.
