Death Comes Easy — Peter Burton

From the Roman Empire to the Far East and from a dangerously repressed priest to strangers on a plane, these stories know no boundaries in their pursuit of violent killers and bloody endings.

This vividly imagined collection includes authors known for their stories of murder and mayhem and others who are new to the tradition. It opens with a lively introduction by Lambda-nominated editor Peter Burton.

Contributors include: Perry Brass, Hugh Fleetwood, Patrick Gale, Drew Gummerson, Francis King, Josh Lanyon, Felice Picano, Steven Saylor and Michael Wilcox.
