Mystery Writers of America Presents Ice Cold

The Cold War provides a chilling backdrop to this collection of all-new short stories. Bestselling authors Jeffery Deaver and Raymond Benson join forces to bring us twenty masterful tales of paranoia, espionage, and psychological drama. In Joseph Finders “Police Report,†the seemingly cut-and-dried case of a lunatic murderer in rural Massachusetts may have roots in Soviet-controlled Armenia. In “Miss Bianca†by Sara Paretsky, a young girl befriends a mouse in a biological warfare laboratory and finds herself unwittingly caught in an espionage drama. And Deavers own “Comrade 35†offers a unique spin on the assassination of JFK—with a signature twist.
