A collection of stories by

 
 
Enveloped in vivid settings and peopled by complex, conflicted characters, the themes of duplicity and depravity weave a crooked path through these nine powerful stories. Some are provocative, some are puzzling, and some are heartbreaking, but all are written with the jewel-like craftsmanship of an artist. With the gritty realism of Faulkner and Hemingway echoing throughout the pages, critically acclaimed author Randall Silvis adds to his already impressive oeuvre, and in so doing reaffirms his designation by the New York Times Book Review as ‘a masterful storyteller,’ and, as Book Reporter describes him, ‘an author’s author.’

"Randall Silvis is writer of exceptional talent." John W. Aldridge, author of Talents and Technicians
