After the first Chesapeake Crimes anthology, I looked immediately for a follow-up. This is an unusually strong anthology. I am accustomed to thinking myself lucky if I like a third of the stories in an anthology, but I enjoyed almost all of these, diverse though they were. This is particularly surprising given that contributors are limited to members of the Chesapeake Chapter of Sisters in Crime. Obviously, a talented group. The stories are extremely varied in tone and style. Some of the same authors contributed to the first anthology are here, but there are also many new names. Many of the stories are set in DelMarVa, but that is certainly not a requirement. (DelMarVa is short for Delaware, Maryland and Virginia, especially the penisula of the Eastern Shore of the Chesapeake Bay that they all share.) A great place to find new authors to read. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe

HTML: Chesapeake Crimes: Storm Warning is the latest installment of the Agatha- and Anthony-award-winning Chesapeake Crimes series. This volume features tales by: Donna Andrews Timothy Bentler-Jungr Shaun Taylor Bevins Carla Coupe Maddi Davidson Linda Ensign Barb Goffman Kim Kash Adam Meyer Alan Orloff KM Rockwood Lauren R. Silberman Marianne Wilski Strong Art Taylor Robin Templeton "The diabolical sisters of the Chesapeake Chapter of Sisters in Crime have raised the stakes: not only asking their astute members to offer up a gem of a short story, but to add a degree of difficulty. It has to be about the weather.... Rain, snowstorms, hurricanes. The glare of the sun. The shrouding fog. Clouds, mist, hail, and icy roads. The Chessies have used their writerly talent to embrace the weather, to relish it, and to provide us with a raft of meteorological (and deadly) delights." â?? Hank Phillippi Ryan, bestselling author of the Jane Ryland series Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |

One of my favorite stories was Sandi Wilson's The Blond in Black which takes place in Georgetown an historic section of DC.
Another was by Peggy Hansen entitled Death in The Aegean which had an exotic flavor. ( )
