The Garden of Eden: And Other Criminal Delights

by Faye Kellerman

The Garden of Eden: And Other Criminal Delights Cover

 

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

"New York Times" bestselling author Kellerman delivers a riveting collection of 14 crime and mystery short stories--plus four bonus tales--compiled for the first time in one volume.

Review:

"Bestseller Kellerman's hardcore fans will welcome this eclectic volume, whose 17 selections include two new tales about her series husband-and-wife team, LAPD Lt. Peter Decker and Rina Lazarus; two stories with family themes, one coauthored with Kellerman's two daughters ('The Luck of the Draw'); and a pair of autobiographical essays, one a poignant tribute to her late father ('The Summer of My Womanhood'). Kellerman's short stories may lack the intricate plotting of her novels (Stone Kiss, etc.), but a typical effort like the title story, in which Decker notices some things out of place when a friend dies of an apparent heart attack, is never less than entertaining. Brief comments at the start of each entry provide context." Publishers Weekly (Copyright Reed Business Information, Inc.)
