This is a rec for anyone who enjoys reading mysteries. The brilliant Laura Mason,
lorie945, spent NaNo month writing a novel-length fanfic crossing--wait for it--The Charioteer (my favorite book) and Ellery Queen mystery novels.
You don't need to have read any Ellery Queen to enjoy this (I haven't), nor do you need to have read The Charioteer. (But if you haven't yet, why haven't you?) You'll catch on to the characters quickly enough.
Go, read
Wrightsville: Long Ago and Far Away. This link will take you to the prologue. She's posting a chapter a day; approximately five chapters are up so far. (And one of my dear boys is a murder suspect!)
