Are You Ready For a Brand-New Beat?*

Are you ready? On 15 November, LAXtras: Los Angeles-Style Crime Stories, launches in Kindle and paperback formats! Nineteen authors have joined with me to create this charity anthology of crime stories. They’re all terrific stories, and range from light to noir, and from post-World-War-II to the present day. There’s something for everyone in this collection. Here’s the blurb:

Welcome to Los Angeles, where anything can happen, and usually does…

  • An intelligence operation that could go very wrong…
  • A holiday party where murder is on the menu…
  • A tough PI in search of a missing wife who might not want to be found…
  • Nefarious doings at a legendary theatre…

……and who’s killing all those clowns?

In these suspenseful stories, you’ll take a tension-filled tour of the city, from its world-famous airport, to the enclaves of the rich and privileged, to the suburbs, the city streets, and the countryside. You’ll find LA-style crime wherever you go!

Best of all, all royalties from sales of the anthology will benefit the California Community Foundation’s Wildlfire Recovery Fund.

The anthology is ready for pre-order right here! The paperback version will be available on 15 November, when the book is officially released.

*NOTE: The title of this post is a line from Marvin Gaye, William Stevenson, and Ivy Jo Hunter’s Dancing in the Street.
