When a different kind of justice is needed---swift, effective, and personal---a new type of avenger must take action. VENGEANCE features new stories by bestselling crime writers including Lee Child, Michael Connelly, Dennis Lehane, and Karin Slaughter, as well as some of today's brightest rising talents. The heroes in these stories include a cop who's seen too much, a woman who has been pushed too far, or just an ordinary person doing what the law will not. Some call them vigilantes, others claim they are just another brand of criminal. Edited and with an introduction by Lee Child, these stories reveal the shocking consequences when men and women take the law into their own hands. Full list of contributors: Alafair Burke Lee Child Michael Connelly Mike Cooper Brendan DuBois Jim Fusilli Michelle Gagnon Darrell James C.E. Lawrence Dennis Lehane Steve Liskow Rick McMahan Adam Meyer Dreda Say Mitchell Michael Niemann Twist Phelan Zo Sharp Karin Slaughter Orest Stelmach Anne Swardson Janice Law Trecker

I usually enjoy a mystery anthology, but some of these short stories were amazing....leaving me thinking just “wow.”

I know it's realistic that authors create protags with prejudices, a reflection of the real world, but I found it taxing to read an anthology of stories where so many of the contributors made this choice. This said, still a good read, my favs being: The Fourteenth Juror, The Consumers, River Secret, Hot Sugar Blues, The Final Ballot, The Unremarkable Heart (triggers!), Even a Blind Man, The General, Leverage, The Hotline, The Hollywood I Remember.
