Ten remarkably diverse short stories filled with scheming characters, unexpected twists, and writing that'll sneak up on you from the Edgar Award winning crime novelist.
"A good short story is like a punch from a prize fighter - it comes at you fast, delivers an impact, and leaves you stunned. There's no one in our business who does this better than David Housewright. In great story after great story, he proves himself a master of the art of short fiction. This is a collection that should be on every reader's bookshelf."
