Mike Cooper’s anthology appearances from 2010 show his standing in the crime fiction community. His inclusion in The Best American Mystery Stories 2010 placed him among the top short-form mystery writers of that year. Crimes by Moonlight is a mystery anthology edited by Charlaine Harris, while Killer Fiction collects 11 short stories about killers, fixers, and private investigators.
These anthologies offer a good way to sample Cooper’s writing if you have not tried his longer novels. His short fiction shares the same sharp plotting and crime world authenticity found in the Silas Cade books and his standalone novels.
