Paromjit's Reviews > Dead Ends

This is a collection of short stories from the established and popular crime and mystery writer, Jeffery Deaver, some of which you may already have read previously as they have been published before. It features his specialist, Colter Shaw, with his mobile home, and Lincoln Rhymes, operating outside of his home territory. There is a baby sitter, tales that draw inspiration from Jack the Ripper, and Sherlock Holmes. There are murderous goings on at a writer's conference, a book lover in Mexico, and a Sunday serial killer in Milan. My favourites included complicated, longer, and multiple character stories that grip and where nothing is as it first appears. As might be expected with a short story collection, some stories are likely to appeal more than others. However, this is Deaver, so a collection that I recommend! Many thanks to the publisher for an ARC.
