From the acclaimed author of A Necessary Evil, Process of Elimination, and Profits of Doom comes a diverse collection of previously published and unpublished fiction that includes: Rialto - a gritty noir novella of lovelorn revenge set in Hell's Kitchen in the late 1940's and early 50's; four short stories including Pawns - a mini spy thriller; Gideon - the coming-of-age story of a reluctant faith healer; Leftovers - a baby boomer's nostalgic lament; and Night Driving - a brooding character study of a nocturnal loner further alienated and guilt-ridden following a tragic accident. In addition there are three chilling Tales of Terror - The Wake-Up Call, Autograph, and Shadowcaster, plus The Green Room - a serio-comedic one-act play set in the early 1980's. All told, this volume provides an intriguing touchstone to the eclectic literary legacy of Robert Stricklin, as well as an entertaining reading experience for lovers of modern fiction.
