Deadfall: Crime Stories by New England Writers

Deadfall: Crime Stories by New England Writers

Judith Green
4.6/5 ( ratings)
New England Crime Story Collection Explores Back Roads and Dark Street

Mystery lovers and fans of the short story alike will find a compelling read in Deadfall, Level Best’s sixth annual anthology of crime stories by New England writers. From a weary dad facing failure in his rusted trailer in rural Maine to an angry old woman running a struggling mom and pop store in a gritty urban city, from the chilling whisperings of the pets in an elegant Boston townhouse to a stalker lurking in a dark mall parking lot, and from the genteel anguish in a Cambridge therapist’s office to the desperate merriment of a church hall bingo game, good guys and bad guys and gals struggle for love, honor, money, and truth. This collection of twenty-six stories includes the 2008 Al Blanchard Award-winning story, Family Plot, where a death in the family exposes a struggling single mom to the greed of relatives she didn’t even know she had.

"Sixth annual anthology"--Cover. Includes "Promises to Keep" a Quincy Lazzaro story by A. J. Pompano as well as stories by: Stephen Allen, Norma Burrows, Kathleen Chenchank, John Clark, Christine Falcone, Kat Fast, Kate Flora, Judith Green, Woody Hanstein, Vaughn Hardacker, Janice Law, Steve Liskow, Ruth M. McCarty, Libby Mussman, Susan Oleksiw, Margaret Press, Pat Remick, Joe Ricker, Stephen D. Rogers, J. E. Seymour, Clea Simon, John Urban, Mo Walsh, Leslie Wheeler and Mike Wiecek.
