Search - List of Books by Edna Buchanan

Edna Buchanan (born 1939) is an American journalist and author best known for her crime mystery novels.

She was born in Paterson, New Jersey and attended Montclair State College.. As one of the first female crime journalists in Miami, she wrote for the Miami Beach Daily Sun and the Miami Herald as a general assignment and police-beat reporter. She won a Pulitzer Prize in 1986 for general reporting.

Her book Miami, It's Murder was nominated for an Edgar Award in 1995.

Buchanan suffered a serious embarrassment in 1990 when she was quoted extensively in the book Blue Thunder: How the Mafia Owned and Finally Murdered Cigarette Boat King Donald Aranow, by Thomas Burdick and Charlene Mitchell.
Burdick...led her to believe that he was seeking only background information, never used a tape recorder or took notes, asked her to hypothesize about people and situations, then quoted her as if she were stating fact.
According to Buchanan, she tried to have her name and the quotes removed from the book after she had seen the galley proofs, but was told by the publisher that it was too late.
