Sometimes people kill for profit, sometimes revenge, and sometimes they do it just for the fun of it...
Here are seventeen tales of crime, murder, and vengeance from Ed Kurtz, author of The Rib From Which I Remake the World and Bleed, including the acclaimed stories "A Good Marriage" and "The Trick."
From backwoods Arkansas to the sleazy side of Cologne, Germany, America's first serial killer in nineteenth century Texas to a broken family descending into madness in 1920s England, no one escapes their own darkest drives and everyone learns there is Nothing You Can Do.
