If they killed anybody, they had to feel very guilty about it, and there was no sex or it was sanitized and offstage. Though they were strong characters, the female detectives in their series very rarely cussed. The male detectives in their books could cuss and kill people if they were defending themselves and have sex and nobody thought anything of it. HAMILTON: I found hardboiled detective fiction for the first time. ![]() ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY: How and when did the idea for Anita first come to you? ![]()
