Requiems for the Departed blurbed
Mar. 29th, 2010 04:45 pmYou almost certainly won't recall that a while ago I was crowing insufferably about my story "The Life Business" being accepted by Gerard Brennan and Mike Stone for their anthology of Irish crime stories, which was at the time called The Red Hand of Crime.
It has gone through a name chance since then, and is now called Requiems for the Departed, under which title it has just been blurbed by the estimable Reed Farrel Coleman:
Requiems for the Departed is as Irish as a broken heart, yet universal in appeal. Stuart Neville’s “Queen of the Hill” alone is worth the price of admission, but it’s only the cream at the top of the pint. With stories from the likes of Bruen, McKinty, Moore, and Grant, you’ll want to squeeze every last drop out of this glass.
Natch, the editors are cock-a-hoop -- as who wouldn't be?
