About this listen

Three offbeat stories of crime and conundrum, set in the present moment, from the New York Times best-selling, Edgar Award-winning author of Underground Airlines and The Last Policeman.

Inside Jobs: Tales from a Time of Quarantine includes:

"The Crimson Parrot"

It's not easy masterminding the crime of the century when your whole gang is working from home. A high-stakes tale of larceny, deception, and teleconferencing.

"The Cape House"

As the world shifts around them, two estranged brothers end up in their childhood home. But it's the memories they unearth that will change them forever.

"Stop Motion"

With endless time on her hands, an apartment-bound young woman gets to all the hobbies she's neglected - martial arts, playing the sax, photography...and solving a murder?

Blown away!

This is the best set of short stories I've read to have come out of the pandemic experience so far. First of all, funny as. While also being great imaginative fiction of the highest calibre by Ben H. Winters. Old gangsters figuring out how to do zoom calls. Two adult brothers who don't know one another and like each other less stuck in their recently departed father's house. A Rear Window scenario in which there actually is a murdered neighbour. All three narrators are just fabulous. They're so good that I thought there were more of them. I have a feeling I'm going to remember some of these characters in their situ for a very long time. Time well spent!
