From AudioFile Eight exquisitely narrated stories feature love and murder with varying degrees of hard-boiled machismo. Each story showcases the unique style of its author， and each is performed by a carefully chosen reader. Otto Penzler， the reigning guru of crime fiction， provides insightful introductions to the stories， including anecdotes that personalize each one. Everything in this production is topflight， from the selection of authors to the sound quality， the presentation of the stories and even the incidental music. D.T.H.
