Why subscribe?
Crane is a serialized fiction project—one man’s unwanted gift, the cases he can’t refuse, and the documentary work no one watches. New entries drop regularly. Subscribers get each one delivered directly.
What is this?
Sheridan Crane makes documentaries about forgotten musicians. He’s also, reluctantly, the person the FBI calls when they’re out of options. He’d rather be chasing a blues guitarist named Rosey Biggs through the Mississippi Delta. Instead, he’s looking at your crime scene, seeing what you missed, and wishing he didn’t.
This is his story. Case files. Field notes. The warehouse at 3 AM.
