Crimes by Moonlight: Mysteries from the Dark Side

An enjoyable collection of short stories from renown mystery authors. I particularly enjoyed the addition of fantastical elements, most of which were not the over-used vamp/wolf supernaturals. Ghosts, banshees, and stranger things that have no name, all make appearances in the shorts. As this is a group of mystery writers, most of the endings have the twist that readers expect, though some may surprise you. I found that the authors NOT billed on the cover offered the best stories, while some of the popular authors were lacking. A great read that demonstrates the craft of short stories while keeping the reader thoroughly entertained.
