Is there really such a thing as an innocent person? Teachers, cops, mothers, wives, everyone has their breaking point; that moment where it could go either way. From the prostitute with no way out, to the bitter author, and a cop who just wants his leave, the characters in this collection will baffle and bewilder you at every turn. Features stories from emerging Australian crime writers alongside award-winning authors Angela Savage, Peter Corris, Leigh Redhead, Andrew Nette, David Whish-Wilson, P.M. Newton, Carmel Bird and Tony Birch. 'Highly original stories - many using the standard elements of cop, crook, crime and punishment and yet producing fresh and intriguing tales.
