Could you tell us a bit about why that is / making that decision as a novelist? In The Infinite Blacktop, the final issue of the Cynthia Silverton comics becomes a major plot point.
One of my favorite things about the Claire DeWitt novels is the deep influence of books unique to Claire's world that make such an impact on her, such as Silette's Detection and the Cynthia Silverton comic books. As a result, comic book print culture of the 1970s ends up playing a critical role in the mystery. In one of the three major storylines in The Infinite Blacktop, Claire is trying to track down an elusive Cynthia Silverton comic. Her private eye, Claire deWitt, is profoundly influenced by an elusive French book of detection from 1959, entitled Détection, which guides - and haunts - her actions throughout the novels. Books - real and imaginary - play significant roles in her novels. Gran formerly worked in used and rare books, for places like The Strand and Shakespeare and Co, as well and on her own as an independent bookseller. (We interviewed Gran on this blog in 2013 after the publication of Claire deWitt and the Bohemian Highway). It's the third book in the excellent Claire DeWitt series, which began with Claire deWitt and the Bohemian Highway, and Claire deWitt and the City of Dead.
