Dean James has contributed short fiction to mystery anthologies throughout his career, starting with Deadly Women in 1997. The nine anthologies span a range of themes, from animal-focused mysteries in Canine Crimes (1998) to Southern-themed collections like Magnolias and Mayhem (2000) and A Kudzu Christmas (2005).
These anthology appearances sit alongside his novel-length work and show his range within the mystery genre across nearly two decades of publishing.
