A Short Walk Down A Dark Street: Issue 14

Per Peter DiChellis’ message to our SMFS list…
This week’s blog dishes the straight dope on short mystery and crime fiction, especially for fans of detective stories, with links to free reads, an Otto Penzler essay that makes the case for short-form detective tales, and a cross–section of crime-infested picks for your TBR pile (including links to a review of a Lawrence Block Matt Scudder collection, the upcoming release of The Big Book of Female Detectives, and to a 2011 Loren D. Estleman Amos Walker collection).
Plus, an essay on the art of sculpting a story’s sagging middle.

A short walk down a dark street

Best wishes,
Peter
