About this listen

From the Civil War-era south, to 1950's New York, to the present day's gritty cities and seemingly innocuous suburbs, the 18 stories in this anthology, edited by the award-winning mystery writer Harlan Coben, chart the complications - always surprising, sometimes deadly - that arise between lovers, dear friends, and even complete strangers coming together for a single, shocking encounter.

In Lee Child's "Safe Enough", a blue-collar city boy takes up with a wealthy suburban wife, with dire consequences. In Harlan Coben's "Entrapped", a woman's husband disappears and is replaced by a handsome impostor. In Laura Lippman's "One True Love", a high-end prostitute seeks a radical solution to a public relations problem. Finally, in P. J. Parrish's "One Shot", a man returns to his childhood home to learn the truth about a long-ago tragedy.

Other contributors of original stories include Ridley Pearson, R. L. Stine, Jim Fusilli, Jeff Abbott, Charles Todd, and Tom Savage.

Good collection of short stories. Very neo noir feel. Some stories are better than others so if ones not great you dont feel as though you've lost too much time. I thought the narration was very good and is what kept me listening as well.

Good narration and decent collection of stories

Alan Sklar, with an assist from Karen White, does a great job narrating 18 short murder mysteries revolving around crimes of passion in all their many forms. None of the stories are mind-blowing, but as a whole this was an excellent array of whodunnits.

Super Sklar!
