The
cover story for Flash Bang Mysteries: Summer 2020 Issue 20 is “Prophetic
Words” by Bruce Harris. The Tenement Bar and Grill may be dated in many ways,
but Peter likes the place. It helps that they are the only bar that carries his
beer preference. It would be smart not to screw up a good thing. It is questionable
how smart Peter is this day.
Professor
Chen fell down the stairs and is very much dead in “Light and Shadow” by Daria
Davis. The question is what this will mean for his research assistant, Alicia
Croft, and Professors Anderson and Selwyn. The on campus and very public death
of the Department Head will have ripple effects.
Waking
up painfully hungover is bad enough. Waking up painfully hungover in a Prius is
Marie’s fate as “Looking For Ida’s Chevy” by Bud Sabelhaus begins. She hopes no
tattoos were involved this time.
The
Editor’s Choice story for this issue is “Dress Rehearsal” by Herschel Cozine. Everyone
knows you really should not take your job home with you. Brad does in this
gripping tale.
As
one expects from this market run by B. J. Bourg and his son, Brad, the latest
issue is another good one. Four short tales that each pack a punch in their own
way. Flash Bang Mysteries Summer 20220 issue 20 is another fast
and fun read. Despite the fact it is a well paying market, the read is free and
can be found online here.
