Enjoy 22 helpings of New York attitude!

Murder New York Style: Fresh Slices is a collection written by local members of the New York/Tri-State chapter of Sisters in Crime, featuring tales from the most ethnically diverse and densely populated city in America. By turns funny, tough, and somber, the authors reveal slices of life beyond the tourist's view, rich and poor neighborhoods where old-timers desperately protect their secrets and brand-new arrivals indulge dangerous appetites. There's as much variety in the tones, settings, and approaches as in the city itself. And yet, each of these crime stories also reflects Gotham's most infectious and unifying principle, that special combination of adaptability and assertiveness dished out more often than any pizza or street meat.
