About This Book
Multiple Authors: Neal Matthews, Joseph Wambaugh, Rick Attig, Peg Willis, T.Jefferson Parker, Bernard Hunt, Eva Ditler, Thomas Eland. As West as It Gets, Out West, the sunset's always blood-red - or so it seems in the deliciously devilish "Last Seen Off Stingray Point, and 9 Other Dances With Death on the Western Edge," an anthology of literary short fiction that explores how one copes with death in some of its evil incarnations. The West Coast-based contributors include two-time Pulitzer Prize winner Rick Attig, best-selling crime authors Joseph Wambaugh and T. Jefferson Parker, notable San Diego writers Neal Matthews, Eva Ditler and Wayne Carlson, Oregonian Peg Willis, Las Vegan Bernard Hunt and Thomas Eland, who splits his time in homes in Honolulu and Silverdale, amid the Puget Sound islands off Seattle. Whether complete fiction or linked to important events through historical fiction, the ten stories deal with personal crises, human frailty and the illusion of life's stability. It's a heady mix of stories, styles and West Coast history. Highly recommended -Michael Evans, Publishers Weekly
