Festival of Crime
ISBN: 9781935666646
A 2014 release from
Twin Cities Sisters in Crime
Chapter and Nodin Press of Minneapolis.
Whoever said women were the weaker/nicer sex? Wrong. At
least it’s not true of the women portrayed in this delightful collection of nineteen
short stories. They are offered by writers/members of the Twin Cities Chapter
of Sisters In Crime. Every story takes place at a celebration of some kind,
from small town to big city, urban to rural, simple vengeance to sophisticated
torture. Women of all ages parade through these pages, bent on asserting
themselves in sometimes vengeful, sometimes random and often murderous ways.
As is usually the case with collections, there’s a degree of
variation in the quality, but the efforts of Husom, Turk and Mallory, editors
of the works are evident in the overall strength of the stories. Readers will
smile, cringe, laugh and nod in sympathy, and I predict, talk about these
stories with spouses and friends.The trade publication is available at all the usual outlets.
