This year's anthology, QUARRY, continues the tradition of excellence in short fiction. QUARRY is New England with ice storms, ice out, superettes and gun shows. QUARRY is gritty streets and rutted roads, criminal ingenuity and personal integrity, madness and motherhood. And taking us on these journeys are writers who together have been nominated for or won all the major awards for crime fiction. The yearly crime story collections from LEVEL BEST BOOKS have been recognized by the mystery community with a host of nominations and awards, including the Robert L. Fish Award for best crime story by a first time writer, Derringer awards, and Edgar, Macavity, Agatha and Derringer nominations. This collection continues the Level Best tradition of introducing the region's readers to some of its finest crime writers.
