Начало книги
My original intention when it came to putting together this book was to separate the collection into two sections: One for the “horror” stories and one for the “crime” stories. Then, when I started getting into the nuts and bolts of the thing it began to occur to me that doing so wasn’t going to be quite so easy. A lot of my work, especially my short fiction, incorporates elements of both genres within a single story, sometimes within a single paragraph.
So instead I decided just to mix things up, the horror with the noir with the crime with the fantastical. But the fact of the matter is at heart I am a crime writer. In virtually everything I write someone does something bad, usually to someone else who doesn’t deserve it. Often that person gets what’s coming to him (or her) in the end; sometimes he doesn’t, but there is almost always a twist or two along the way. At least that’s what I aim for. You can decide if I’ve succeeded.
