Laura Lippman
New York Times best-selling author Laura Lippman turns her attention to short stories and reveals another level of mastery.
Lippman sets many of the stories in this sterling anthology, Hardly Knew Her, in familiar territory: her beloved Baltimore. But Lippman is also unafraid to travel - to New Orleans, to an unnamed Southwestern city, and even to Dublin. Tess Monaghan is here in two stories and a profile, aligning herself with various underdogs. And in her extraordinary, never-before-published novella, Scratch a Woman, Lippman takes us deep into the private world of a high-priced call girl/madam and devoted soccer mom, exploring the mystery of what may, in fact, be written in the blood.
Each of these ingenious tales is a gem, sometimes poignant, sometimes humorous, always filled with delightfully unanticipated twists and reversals. For people who have yet to listen to Lippman, get ready to experience the spellbinding power of "one of today's most pleasing storytellers" (San Diego Union-Tribune). As for longtime devotees of her multiple award-winning novels, you'll discover that you hardly know her.

However they are badly compiled, with the publisher giving an ending blurb after each one ends, leading one to think the end of the end of the whole book has been reached.
Sandwiched between each story is some discordant music - I can only imagine it’s included to wake up the unfortunate customers who has purchased this book.
I wanted to return once I realized it contained drafts, but the was a “not eligible for return” notation next to its title in my purchase history.
A pity; I had so looked forward to this collection after reading Ms Lippman’s “Seasonal Work”.
