To misquote the Pointed Man (from Harry Nilsson's The Point): "A theme in every direction, is the same as, well, no theme at all." Which just about sums up Crimeucopia-You Ain't Read Nothin' Yet. A regular Free-4-All-where the theme literally is No Jacket, or Theme, Required....

So, opening the Scrabble bag of this anthology's short fiction, you'll find-

Jon Matthew Farber, Steven James Foreman, Peter W. J. Hayes, John B. Elliott, Merrilee Robson, Philip Pak, Tucker Struyk, Maurice Givens, Carol Willis, Veronica Gardner, Mary Jo Robertiello, Ariel Dodson, Allison Whittenberg, Devin James Leonard, David Bart, H.E. Vogl, Karen Bayly, Marula Blades and Michael Canfield -all of whom give you a spread from cosy through to hard edged Noir and grindhouse.

And so, with all of these anthologies, as everything gently fades to black, we hope you'll find something that you immediately like, as well as something that takes you from your regular comfort zone-and slips you, gently or otherwise, into a completely new one.

Because, in the investigative spirit of our Murderous Ink Press motto: You never know what you like until you turn over the page and read it.
