12 New Stories by the Great Crime Writers.
This is the second entry in Otto Penzler's themed series of new stories, this one focusing on revenge. In the wickedly entertaining tradition of his acclaimed collections, Otto Penzler has once again gathered the best of the best, twelve of crime fiction's finest writers who explore the theme of murder for revenge.
A high school wallflower cooks up justice a la carte at her 20th high-school reunion . . . A submission wife sails her domineering husband straight to hell . . . A man disposes of his enemy in a murder only a writer could commit.
In Lawrence Block's chilling contribution, a serial killer amazingly transforms one victim's brother into his greatest defender. Revenge more immediate sizzles in Mary Higgins Clark's 'Power Play' as a dashing ex-president and his congresswoman wife outwit terrorists hunting bigger game. Phillip Margolin's career criminal has an alibi to die for. And Joyce Carol Oates administers revenge most satisfying as a brilliant lawyer defends her first criminal client - her worst enemy's son.
