    About this audiobook

    From the Civil War–era south to 1950s New York to the present day's gritty cities and seemingly innocuous suburbs, the eighteen 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. And 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.

      1. As much as I may rack my brain, there are 15 minutes or so in the dark that I can’t account for and that I’ll never get back—15 minutes during which, I have to think, that creep’s hands were touching my body. It’s a weird thing to think about all

      A stellar anthology. Every title a gem-good editing.Listened to audiobook 3 times, which is unusual for mystery once you know the solution.Even if you don’t like all the stories as I did, you are sure to find ones to please. In this collection it is a safe bet.
    • 4/5
      A fine sampling of mystery fiction. I was not familiar with some of these authors, and this made for a pleasant introduction. I was pleased at the true stylistic range of the stories, from tame cozies to blood-boiling noir. A job well done by the MWA folks and Harlan Coben.
