Produktbeschreibung

We have another great lineup this time, with original tales by Robert Lopresti (thanks to Acquiring Editor Michael Bracken), Shannon Taft (thanks to Acquiring Editor Barb Goffman), Wayne Carey, Teel James Glenn, and JM Cyrus (who gets the honor of having the story with the longest title that we've [yet] published!)

As always, it's an eclectic mix, from traditional mysteries to supernatural crimes, from space opera to a fantastic world of moving islands...and everything in between! I hope you enjoy them all.

And special thanks to our art director, Ron Miller, who has found a terrific Steve Hickman cover for this issue (and continues to design amazing covers).
