If Looks Could Kill, She Would Have Been An Uzi......Or more likely a shotgun. I mean, Lawd knows what those two ever saw in each other in the first place, and that's a fact. Don't believe me? Well, let me tell you about the time when....

But that's how it usually starts, doesn't it? Someone says something, which reminds someone else about.... And so the anecdotal avalanche begins.

This time there's 19 storytellers:

Vinnie Hansen, V.S. Kemanis, David Krugler, Robert Jeschonek, Beverle Graves Myers, Kirk Landers, James Lee Proctor, Victor Kreuiter, K. Arlington Andrews, Michael Bracken, Kevin R. Tipple, William Flores, Robert Sumner, Jim Guigli, James Roth, Michael Zimecki, Sebastian Corbascio, Martin Zeigler, and John Bertram Fawet III

All gathered around the front counter of the Crimeucopia Shots to Hell Bar & Grill - and more than willing to tell you about how it is, or was, or even will be....

So, over the background sounds from an old jukebox loaded with worn out 45s (vinyl rather than the likes of a Px4 Storm), settle back and take in their individual stories - and we guarantee there's going to be Crimesapleanty indeed...

Enough to keep going until the Editorial bar staff call for glasses and ask the age old question:

"Don't any of you writers have homes to go to?!"As with all of these anthologies, we hope you'll find something that you immediately like, as well as something that takes you out of your late night cocktail comfort zone - and puts you into a completely new one.

Because, in the Happy Hour spirit of our Murderous Ink Press motto:

You never know what you like until you read it.
