Best British Crime volume 10
Posted by stevemosby on January 22nd, 2013
Really pleased to say that my story “God moving over the face of the waters” has been included in the latest volume of Maxim Jakubowski’s Mammoth Book of Best British Crime:
I’m especially pleased because: a) I don’t write many short stories; b) it came from Off the Record 1, and any success for the story necessarily reflects on Luca Veste as the editor of that fine charity anthology; and c) just look at this contents page:
