Description
DECEPTION is another strong collection of thirty mystery/suspense short stories by a true master of the genre, John M. Floyd. Whether writing humor, police procedure, nostalgia, Westerns, sci-fi/fantasy, or horror, Floyd's witty dialogue, outstanding sense of time/place, and--more than anything else--his brilliant, O'Henry-like twist endings to each story makes this book an absolute can't-miss read. Start with the first story, "Weekend Getaway," and see if you can possibly put the book down.
