Short description

Istoria Books Presents: Lunch Reads Volume 3 A short-short and a long-short--two great mystery stories by writers at the top of their craft! In this third volume of Istoria Books's Lunch Reads series, readers will encounter a grumpy senior citizen doing her grocery shopping and a small town abuzz about the murder of their local newspaper's editor.

Extended description

Shoplifting by Edmund X. DeJesus: A cantankerous woman does her regular grocery shopping, providing a mental commentary as she cruises the aisles. But all is not as it seems in this densely packed tale of skewed perspective.

Call of the Riled by Ellen B. Holzman: A newspaper editor is murdered, and the whole town is talking about whodunit--in letters to the editor of The Mountain Telegraph, a small-town newspaper whose letter writers will seem familiar to anyone who's ever regularly read similar publications. The author, a former newspaper publisher, brilliantly captures each distinct personality as she slowly reveals the criminal in this epistolary story.
