Summary:
It's been said that all great literature boils down to one of two stories--a man takes a journey, or a
stranger
comes
to
town
. While mystery writers have been successfully using both approaches for generations, there's something undeniably alluring in the nature of a
stranger
: the uninvited guest, the unacquainted neighbor, the fish out of water. No matter how or where they appear, strangers are walking mysteries, complete unknowns in once-familiar territories who disrupt our lives with unease and wonder. In the newest collection of stories by the Mystery Writers of America, each author weaves a fresh tale surrounding the eerie feeling that
comes
when
a
stranger
enters our midst, featuring stories by prolific mystery writers such as Michael Connelly, Joe Hill.
