Crimes Collide, Vol. 2

Kristine Kathryn Rusch and Dean Wesley Smith

The Second Volume in the Acclaimed Series!

For more than four decades, New York Times and USA Today bestselling writers Kristine Kathryn Rusch and Dean Wesley Smith have been writing professional mystery short stories that have won awards and sold millions of copies, plus they have been acclaimed and enjoyed by fans over the entire world.

Now, for the first time, they collect 100 of their mystery short stories into a five-volume series called Crimes Collide. Fifty stories total from each author, with ten stories from Rusch and ten from Smith in every volume.

Volume 2 takes a journey through history, but not always the one we remember. Beginning with Smith’s “Idanha Hotel,” from his Thunder Mountain series, about a desperate attempt to change the past in the old West and ending with Rusch’s “Updates,” which features crimes set on election night 1984, this volume explores past mysteries—from our own timeline and alternate ones.
