Book Review: Crime Hits Home: A Collection of Stories from Crime Fiction's Top Authors by S.J. Rozan

 


Title:  Crime Hits Home

Author: S.J. Rozan and other authors

Stars: 3 1/2

Review:

I love Collections where different author gets together and put short stories, novella and full novels into one collection.  It gives readers a chance to test out different authors stories, writing styles and the best of all find a new author!

Not every story or author will readers li

ke but it is a blend of different styles and stories that some times connects to the main title Crime Hits Home.

This anthologies are short stories have everything readers love from mystery and crime.  While not all the stories are a hit the cast of author has kept to the theme.  Some stories are rushed while others have master the ability to give readers a lot in a short amount of words.

Thank you to Netgalley for the advance copy of Crime Hits Home: A Collection of Stories from Crime Fiction's Top Authors by S.J. Rozan

Synposis:

Everyone comes from someplace. Everyone has somewhere they feel safe. Some people have found their home and are content where they are. Others feel trapped and yearn to go somewhere else. Many are somewhere else and yearn to go back. But evenin these safest of places, sometimes…crime hits home. What happens then?

In this volume, MWA brings together some of today’s biggest crime writers—and some of our most exciting new talents—to consider this question. Each writer has defined home as they see fit: a place, a group, a feeling. The crime can come from without or within. What happens when crime hits home?
