Three stars. Five for some, one for others. Like most anthologies, this was a mixed bag, and in an anthology like this one almost always has to do with familiarity with the characters. Temperance Brennan and Jack Reacher? Five stars. Lucan Thorne and Lilliane? Let just say less than five. There were a couple of gems in here and even a couple that made me want to look into some characters with whom I am unfamiliar. That's good enough for an enjoyable anthology.

A borrowed book from a coworker, I'm a little surprised at how many authors I haven't read. I knew Sandra Brown existed but have never read her work. I think I have a slew of new mystery authors to read! Great short stories. Not a one of them was boring or uninteresting.
