Author Description

Crimes, capers, and mayhem abound when eleven New England writers turn their talents to the art of the short story. Here we meet an eclectic cast of good guys and bad guys, including a battle-scarred PI who repairs cars when she's not investigting murders, a Jamaican cook who traffics with ghosts, and a Protean temp worker with a touch of larceny in her soul. Whether hard-boiled or humorous, eerie or evocative, these stories explore the dark side of human nature through a variety of genres--mystery, suspense, thriller, and horror. Something for everyone!
