Trouble In The Heartland
Edited by Joe Clifford
Crime Fiction Inspired by the Songs of Bruce Springsteen
Each of the accomplished authors in this unique anthology chose a Springsteen title as a starting point, and in the criminally inclined spirit of the Boss, drove headlong to wherever that inspiration called. The destinations are as diverse and far-reaching as the songs that influenced them.
