Chesapeake Crimes grew out of the Chesapeake Chapter of Sisters in Crime, a regional group of mystery writers centered around Maryland and Virginia. The anthologies collect short crime fiction with ties to the Chesapeake Bay area, giving local authors a dedicated outlet for their work.

Three volumes appeared between 2004 and 2018. Marcia Talley, a longtime member of the chapter, contributed to the series alongside other regional mystery writers. The stories use the bay’s fishing towns, naval communities, and waterfront properties as settings for murder and mayhem.
