Seriously. Buy this book. It’s really good and @curtisippolito.bsky.social is a brilliant editor.

I created, contributed to, and edited this series... so when it was orphaned by D&O Books closing down, it only made sense to publish them. I'm proud to announce that Code 4 Press (my imprint usually reserved for my own work) will re-issue A GRIFTER'S SONG!

Big thanks to Pistol Jim for publishing my story "Night Move" as part of the NAILS IN THE COFFIN series. I really had a lot of fun going back to my noir roots with this one and weaving it into an Atlantic City setting.
