Synopsis

Tales of Crime & Violence is a collective of three books of short, and not so short stories. 
The ideas and inspiration are many and as varied as each of the individual stories themselves. 
Although each tales in these books are about committing crime, or being involved in acts of violence, the real story is of those involved, why and how they came to be in this position, whether they were forced or coerced, willing participants or victims themselves. 
 
Not all is quite how it seems to the casual observer. Read on to find out why.

    From the New York Times bestselling author of the Lincoln Rhyme novel The Burial Hour -- comes three powerful short stories. In "Fast," Kathryn Dance races against the clock to track down the members of a domestic terrorist cell--with the lives of 200 people hanging in the balance.   In "Game," a housekeeper looks for her murdered employer's missing body-and uncovers a shocking truth that hits too close to home.  In "Paradice," a car brake failure leaves John Pellam stranded in a remote Colorado mountain town, where he suddenly finds himself accused of murder.  With this trio of brilliantly written, utterly gripping stories, Deaver proves once again that he's the "grand master of the plot twist" (Booklist).

    The short story is one of Ireland's national treasures, and within these pages are some of its finest practitioners — from such established names as Julia O'Faolain, Claire Keegan and Christine Dwyer Hickey, to the exciting new voices of Judy Kravis, Eithne McGuinness and Cherry Smyth. Here we have stories of dysfunctional marriages, abnormal goings on in rural outposts, urban alienation, and kitchen sink dramas where the woman is no longer tied to the kitchen sink but railing against past wrongs. Issues of domestic violence, child abuse, and abortion are laid startlingly bare. The voices are bold, unsentimental, often very funny, and always deeply affecting. Part of a series showcasing contemporary women writers from around the world.
