Some great mystery stories are available from local authors!
This is a fun collection of short stories, with some great authors including Donna Andrews and Elaine Viets. For the most part all were wonderful stories. I even finished the vampire story, and I've pretty much burned out on the whole vampire craze. This is the first collection I've started in a while that I finished every story.
There are a couple of other anthologies from this group so I'll be watching for them.

Another collection of short stories geographically centered on the area surrounding the Chesapeake Bay. I think that I enjoyed these more than the average reader because there were lots of "I've been there" and "Love that restaurant" moments as I read them. Otherwise the short stories were interesting, but I wouldn't search the library for this book.
A nice collection of crime stories, most taking place in and around Baltimore and the Cheseapeake regions. Laura Lippman, Donna Andrews, Elaine Viets and others. Pretty good.
Personal disclosure: I have a story in this anthology, but do check out all the other fine tales from the other 19 authors.
Excellent collection of short stories from local authors!
