Martha Grimes describes the writing process for the Richard Jury mystery series. She never has a plot in mind when she starts to write a new book, it evolves during the writing, and itâÂÂs never clear âÂÂwhodunitâ often until near the end of the book. One reason why she enjoys writing the series is that the sense of humor of the characters makes her laugh. Martha discusses how sheâÂÂs always loved British mysteries and how British pubs are unique: there is nothing in the U.S. like the British pub.
