I wasn't in San Francisco but it's quite possible Ms. McCrumb was there.  My 
favourite work of hers is "She Walks These Hills" which appeared in paperback 
last year.
 FR> Engel I don't know.  What are his works like?
Howard Engel is Canadian and his character, Benny Cooperman, is a Jewish 
private eye in a town in Southwestern Ontario which is called Grantham but 
which I think is St. Catharines.  Engel has a laid-back style which I like 
but then I'm a Canadian, too.:-)
I'm out of here for a holiday so you need not respond.
By the way, I forgot to mention Colin (Inspector Morse) Dexter.  Morse I 
ike!
  
Take care,
Steven Horn
