Editorial Reviews

Gorman and Greenberg follow up A Prisoner of Memory(2008) with another impressive anthology, which features a diverse assortment of styles and settings. Readers familiar with Steve Hockensmith only from his novels will enjoy "The Devil's Acre," a typically amusing story featuring the Amlingmeyer brothers, cowboys inspired by Sherlock Holmes.A Joyce Carol Oates continues to display her facility with crime fiction with her portrait of a man's descent into violence in "The First Husband." The title story should attract deserved notice for Tom Piccirilli, who tugs at the heartstrings while maintaining the moral relativism of classic noir. Other contributors include Michael Connelly, T. Jefferson Parker, Charlaine Harris, Bill Pronzini and Charles Ardai. (Sept.)
