Chris Mooney’s short fiction includes Falling (2006), published between his standalone novels and the launch of the Darby McCormick series.
Falling is a crime thriller novella that offers a condensed version of the kind of suspense Mooney writes at novel length. It came out two years after Remembering Sarah (2004) and one year before The Missing (2007), which introduced Darby McCormick. The novella sits at a turning point in Mooney’s career, between his early standalones and his long-running series.
Readers curious about Mooney’s writing but not ready to commit to a full novel may find Falling a useful starting point. The shorter format keeps the pace tight and gives a clear sense of his style.
