Förlagets beskrivning
This second volume of Opening Shots is a collection of twenty-three first
stories published by prominent mystery and crime writers. Some of these
offerings are remarkably mature, professional work. Others are more obviously
early works, before the writers' skills reached full maturity. But every one of
them is a pleasure to read, and in each can be seen the seed of the writer's
craft. "Each writer has included an introduction worth the price of admission
all by themselves," observes Block. "Writers, it seems to me, are never more
eloquent or more interesting than when they reminisce about their early days,
and recalling one's first success seems a spur to anecdotage for most of
us." Following on the heels of the successful first volume of this series, the
stories in this stellar field include: "Final Rites" by Doug Allyn; "Don't Kill
a Karate Fighter" by William Chambers; "Entrapped" by Harlan Coben; "Yellow
Gal" by Michael Collins; "Together" by Jeffery Deaver; "The Rough Boys" by
Harlan Ellison; "Tole My Cap'n" by Joe Gores; "Layover" by Ed Gorman; "A Bunch
of Mumbo-Jumbo" by Jan Grape; "The Cure" by David Handler; "Till Tuesday" by
Jeremiah Healy; "Village of the Dead" by Edward D. Hoch; "Chalk" by Evan
Hunter; "It's a Wise Child Who Knows" by Stuart Kaminsky; "Who Killed Cock
Robin?" by H. R. F. Keating; "Medford & Son" by Dick Lochte; "Thieves'
Honor" by John Lutz; "Not All Brides Are Beautiful" by Sharyn McCrumb;
"Manslaughter" by Joyce Carol Oates; "You Don't Know What It's Like" by Bill
Pronzini; "The Disappearance of Penny" by Robert J. Randisi; "A Victim Must Be
Found" by Henry Slesar; "Blue Rose" by Peter Straub; "A Bad Night for Burglars"
