A brand-new anthology of crime stories written by masters of the genre, including Jeffrey Deaver, Elly Griffiths and Joe R. Landsdale.

Featuring both original in-universe stories and rarely-seen reprints, this collection of nineteen masterful short stories brings together some of the genre's greatest living authors. Tony Hill and Carol Jordan take on a delightfully twisted killer in Val McDermid's 'Happy Holidays'. In Fiona Cummin's 'Dead Weight', an overbearing mother resorts to desperate measures to keep control of her teenage daughter. And in Dean Koontz's 'Kittens', a young girl learns the truth about how her pets have been dying, and devises a horrible revenge. Tense, twisted and disturbing, Exit Wounds is a visceral and thrilling collection showcasing the very best modern crime fiction has to offer.
