No tired noir tropes here, this is tough, unsentimental & savagely funny dark fiction that charts its own course" --Roger Smith, author of Wake Up Dead and Dust Devils"Keith Rawson's last name gives you a hint.

Rawson's stories always bowl me over with aggressive style and deep psychological fright" --Anthony Neil Smith, author of Yellow Medicine and Choke On Your Lies"Reading Keith Rawson's short stories is like strolling through a minefield: you know you're in for trouble, and there's no going back. Powerful, twisted, fierce and profane, this is take-no-prisoners fiction." -Hilary Davidson, author of the Damage Done
