Short story anthology: theme is Arizona stories by Arizona authors.
Fifteen distinctly different tales of mystery and suspense, presenting a taste of the various sub-genres, including cozy, hard boiled, police procedural, romantic suspense, historical, and psychological thriller. These original stories are all set in Arizona, and the contributing authors are all members of the Arizona writing community.
My short story, "Ephemera," is part of this collection.
Excerpt
from "Ephemera"
I'm a pack rat. I pick up postcards, matchbooks, napkins, travel brochures--any souvenir freebies I can get my hands on. Anything with a logo, photo, advertisement or something to show where the item came from is fair game for my ever-growing collection. "Ephemera" is what tha insiders call all paper collectibles.
When I got the chance to pick up a little extra cash working as a security guard at the annual Post Card and Ephemera Expo at the Phoenix Convention Center, I jumped at the offer.
In this Silver Sisters Mystery it's trouble at sea when Goldie and Godiva's eighty year old mother and uncle are invied on a relaxing cruise. Magic turns to mayhem for these former vaudeville magicians when a star magician is murdered on board.
