You're Killing Me - Lee Goldberg

I just got back from two months in Toronto working as a writer/executive producer on the set of YOU’RE KILLING ME, the hit AMC/Acorn mystery series starring Brooke Shields, Amalia Williamson and Tom Cavanagh. I returned just in time for the Oct 20th release of the 7th Eve Ronin novel, SPLIT SCREEN. The first thing I did was shoot this little video…

The next thing I did was finish the copyedit on THE INVISIBLE ARCHITECT, the second “Edison Bixby” novel, which will be out in March and features a guest appearance from… Eve Ronin! The third thing I did was get back to work on EVE RONIN #8, which will be out this time next year. As you can see, I like to keep busy.

If you’d like a signed copy of SPLIT SCREEN, reach out to Mystery Ink Bookstore to order your book before November 17, which is when I will be doing an event at the Calabasas Library… where I will be interrogated by Emmy Award winning writer/producer and NY Times bestselling author Phoef Sutton (who is also my writing/producing partner on YOU’RE KILLING ME).

I will also be signing at the Orange County Book Fair on November 14… in conjunction with Mystery Ink. So if you want signed books, this is your only chance (unless you are attending Left Coast Crime in Santa Fe in April 2027). You can reach Mystery Ink at mysteryink@hotmail.com or 714-743-6127 to order your copy.

Speaking of YOU’RE KILLING ME, if you missed the blockbuster first season, the highest-rated series in viewers and new subscribers in Acorn’s history, you can now order the complete first season DVD from Amazon…and catch up before season two airs in early 2027.

While I was up in Toronto, I visited my old buddy Linwood Barclay, international bestselling author, and finally got to see his incredible, world-class model train set-up. I also tried to steal his amazing “Flying Sub” model from VOYAGE TO THE BOTTOM OF THE SEA… but he caught me.

I can’t wait for you to see You’re Killing Me in early 2026 on AMC & Acorn. Brooke Shields, Amalia Williamson (Sullivan’s Crossing) and Tom Cavanagh (Ed, The Flash, etc) are terrific in this light-hearted mystery series, created by Robin Bernheim. The six episodes are written by her and co-exec producers Derek Thompson (When Calls the Heart, Murder in a Small Town), Phoef Sutton (Cheers, Darrow & Darrow, Boston Legal etc) and yours truly.

Robin and I have known each other for over thirty years and have worked together many times, including co-creating the hit Hallmark series Mystery 101 together. We both shared a mentor in Michael Gleason, who created Remington Steele, where Robin began her career, before going on to shows like Quantum Leap, Star Trek-TNG, When Calls the Heart, and many, many more.

She also wrote Mother of the Bride, the hit movie that starred Brooke Shields, who she befriended way back on Quantum Leap. And she worked with Derek Thompson for years on When Calls The Heart. Derek is a terrific writer and a great guy. It was immediately clear to me why Robin wanted to work with him again. Phoef Sutton and I are close friends. He’s a multiple Emmy Award winner and we worked together on Darrow & Darrow, a Hallmark series he created and that co-starred Tom Cavanagh (though the two scripts that Phoef and I co-wrote for it weren’t shot because of the Covid-19 shut-down). It’s a fantastic writing staff.

In You’re Killing Me, Brooke plays an internationally bestselling author who, through a series of unusual events, teams up with Amalia, a young, true-crime vblogger to co-author books…and solve puzzling murders. Tom plays the local cop.

We’re in the final weeks of shooting season one up in Nova Scotia and the dailies, and first cuts, are soooo good. Lot of laughs, fun detecting, and some real heart.
