Synopsis (Amazon)

    A woman finds out that Pilates class can be very dangerous.
    A man wakes up in a hospital bed, nearly dead from poison, and with no memory of how he got there.
    An Uber ride turns into a tragic last trip.
    A conflict between a professor and his student turns deadly.
    A woman on the run finds out that her past is catching up with her.
    A winning lottery ticket turns out to be anything but lucky.

These and more suspenseful flash fiction crime stories show that murder can happen anywhere: at home, at work, at school, at the gym, and even during the holiday season. No place is really safe, and no-one can really be trusted.  

My Take

I have been reading Margot Kinberg's flash fiction for years now. I belong to Margot's mailing list and she sends ne book reviews and the occasional flash fiction.

This latest publication is a collection of 70 of her flash fiction stories, "all of them stories of crime, mostly murder." Most of these I hadn't read before, and despite Margot's recommendations that I should "feel free to dip in and out", I have read them all in the last 2 or 3 days. Delicious!

Do learn more about Margot here and subscribe to her newsletter/blog.

Margot is also the author of several novel, also available on Kindle. see the list below.

My rating: 4.6
