Tue, 30 Jul 2019 | Review by: Breakaway R.

An excellent collection of 17 short stories This is my first venture into short story reading in around 40 years of reading crime/thrillers. I am grateful to Breakaway Reviewers for sending me this book, as I didn't know how I would fare. However, I did enjoy reading each story, they all had mainly good points but some more bad points than others. There were four authors included that are on my long list of must-read authors, and I read their stories first - Lee Child, Jeffery Deaver, Denise Mina and John Harvey. They were all enjoyable but were eclipsed, in my opinion anyway, by stories from Mary Hoffman and James Grady. All the stories kept my attention, although one or two appeared to be a bit rushed. All combined are definitely worth four, maybe four and a half stars. The themes range across different countries, styles and cultures and include large dollops of love, hate, mental illness, humour and, of course, murder. I enjoyed being able to read one or two of the stories in half an hour at lunchtime or in a short period between jobs at home! I would suggest that there is something for everyone in this collection, but the whole collection won't totally satisfy everyone. I found this book an excellent way to be introduced to new authors that I have not read before, and I may well look at getting hold of some of the lesser-known authors' longer books. Some are creepy, some are sad, and others are very dark, and they are all intellectually challenging Digger95 Breakaway Reviewers received a copy of the book to review.
