Spinning — Kristine Kathryn Rusch

Patricia Taylor's spinning class instructor hates her. Maybe it's the extra eighty pounds she carries on her frame. Maybe it's the way she struggles while everyone else in class does just fine. But when her instructor ends up dead, Patricia has to deal with her feelings for him and for everyone else in her small coastal town -- including the killer.

An Edgar Award finalist and one of the top ten stories of the year in Ellery Queen Mystery Magazine.
