Description
The way we treat the world
is a crime—fifteen of them, in fact. Some of the best and most honored mystery
writers today have written new stories for this book dealing with environmental
issues including pollution, wildfire, invasive species, climate change,
recycling, and many more.
Authors include Michael
Bracken, Susan Breen, Sarah M. Chen, Barb Goffman, Karen Harrington, Janice
Law, R.T. Lawton, Robert Lopresti, Jon McGoran, Josh Pachter, Gary Phillips,
S.J. Rozan, Kristine Kathryn Rusch, Mark Stevens, and David Heska Wanbli Weiden.
The stories cover a wide
variety of styles including noir, comic, caper, psychological, police
procedural, and even a tale inspired by comic books.
Putting their money where their mouths are, the authors have chosen ecologically-themed non-profits who will receive half the royalties.
