Publisher Description:
Southern California. Home to sandy beaches, waving
palm trees, balmy weather. Also home to the rich and famous, those barely
hanging on, and everyone else.
Add in murder, embezzlement, stalking, burglary, and
every crime under the sun.
In Crime Under the Sun, the second anthology offered
by Partners in Crime, the San Diego chapter of Sisters in Crime, fifteen
stories capture the hopes and dreams of characters trying to live the idyllic
SoCal life. Instead, they bump up against greed, treachery, corruption, and
death. These stories will thrill readers with unexpected twists and turns and
surprise endings.
In the words of Catriona McPherson in our foreword,
“…the best mystery anthologies should embrace the whole of our beloved genre
and Crime Under the Sun has nailed it.”
Welcome to the seamy underbelly of Southern
California.
