This review is from: Mangrove Mama (Hardcover)

This hardcover collection of short works by the consistently entertaining Van De Wetering earns a place of honor on the shelf of any true (or new) fan of the author.

Through these "tropical tales of terror" we visit locales, characters and dimensions of human desire that are at once familiar--yet fresh--to readers of Van De Wetering's fascinating procedurals and insightful non-fiction explorations. Enjoy crisp story telling punctuated by "ah-ha" and "ha-ha" moments that are VDW hallmarks.

Postscript...read the title selection AFTER the novel, "Maine Massacre," and muse on the question of which came first.
