Library: Mysteries and Thrillers

Everybody loves a good mystery. That includes fans of Geek Culture, who have adopted such classic detectives, spies and kick-ass heroines as Sherlock Holmes, James Bond and Lisbeth Salander into their ranks. These characters live on decades after the death of their creators with new adventures in both the written words of novels and the graphic art of comic books. Even the Girl with the Dragon Tattoo has been transformed into a pseudo-superhero in recent years, adding to the popularity of the genre.

Lisbeth Salander: Bats, Dragons, and Wasps

Exploration of the Girl with the Dragon Tattoo as a comic book superhero, using the expanded mythology of the character developed by author David Lagercrantz and his trilogy of novels.

Richard Castle, Derrick Storm, and Nikki Heat

Seattle Homicide Detective J.P. Beaumont

The Word is Murder, The Sentence is Death
