I’ve been in Newark, the county seat of Licking County, a few times, and even had a job interview there once. ISTR that Thomas Harris once said that Belvedere, Ohio, where the climax (heh) of _The Silence of the Lambs_ was set, was loosely based on Newark. Oddly enough, there is an actual Belvedere, Ohio, but it’s not where Harris sets his fictional town - that description matches Newark.

Here’s Finch’s website, BTW, with a statement by his PR flack: [http://www.richardrfinch.com/updates.cfm](http://www.richardrfinch.com/updates.cfm)
