Summary
Summary
Winner of the 2023 Anthony Award for Best Anthology
The newest anthology from the Mystery Writers of America (MWA) explores the theme of home and the crimes that endanger it, with stories by Ellen Hart, Naomi Hirahara, Walter Mosley, Sara Paretsky, and more.
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 even in 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?
