A fun collection of stories put together by the uber prolific Max Alan Collins (of modern pulp crime fame) and Jeff Gulb (editor of the fantastic Hot Blood series). The stories range in quality as is always the case in these collections but most are well conceived with fun and interesting ideas. The addition of the erotic element in each story doesn't always work, but it does give a few tales a quirky edge to them. I will certainly be looking out for the other volume of this collection to add to my growing pulp crime short story shelf.
