Original tales about the other, moodier season of change Some of the short stories and poems in Autumn Noir unfold as gently as a wisp of chimney smoke. Others bring the heart-thumping thrills of an end-of-summer storm. All feature characters as vibrant as fall foliage and dialogue as crisp as autumn air. Join the down (but maybe not quite out), the struggling, the wicked, the forlorn, and the broken-hearted as they stumble and sometimes fall all the way down. To paraphrase Bette Davis, “Fasten your seatbelts. It’s going to be a bumpy read.” "Some stories leave you hanging and gasping for more. Some make you chuckle at the clever wickedness of seemingly innocent sneaky characters. Some leave you shocked over twists at the end. All are worth reading. Autumn Noir: An Unsettling Reads Anthology is the perfect book for a cold night before a blazing fire."— Kathleen Kaska, author of the award-winning Sydney Lockhart Mystery Series "Autumn Noir contains stories that get under your skin... an exciting collection of stories, some will make you smile, others will send a chill down your spine, and others will keep you guessing the outcome. I loved it!"— Kathryn Lane, award-winning author of the Nikki Garcia Thriller Series --------------------------- 364 pp. | Short Story Anthology
