Crime Fiction: Stories. Essays. Poems.

Jay Stringer? He's a big dirty liar.

(Pass it on.)

Well, in print, anyway. He tells stories about good people doing stupid things, and stupid people doing good things. Also sometimes bad people doing bad things, but that's just for money, okay?

This collection is a full and up-to-date collection of Jay's short fiction, including award-nominated stories such as The Goldfish Heist, The Hard Sell, and I Will Dare.

The book includes appearances by series characters from the Eoin Miller trilogy, the Sam Ireland Mysteries, and the Marah Chase Adventures.

Also included, in what many would call a mistake, are a selection of Jay's poems and reprints of a number of essays that he, for some reason, is proud of.

But remember, everything in this book is a lie.

Except for the parts that are true.
