I'm Pamela Paul.

Casey Sappell joins us now.

She is the author of a new book, her first book.

It's called Furious Hours, Murder, Fraud, and the Last Trial of Harper Lee.

Casey, thanks so much for being here.

Of course, thanks so much, Pamela.

I'm a huge fan of the review.

It's an honor.

So this book is, I think, as the subtitle kind of gives a clue.

It's multiple stories.

It's kind of a book within a book and it's a biography and a literary detective story and

it's a true crime tale.

How did you come to this subject?
