Thanks to Bouchercon for posting links to all of this year’s finalists for the Anthony Award for Best Short Story. I’m honored to have my own story, “A Necessary Ingredient,” included on this slate and to be among such a fine group of writers, such a fine group of friends.
You can find all the stories linked at Bouchercon’s website, and I’ve pasted them below as well. Happy reading!
