"Transgressions" edited by Ed McBain

I bought this used book at the Gloucester Public Library when Ray and I were choosing books on tape for our trip to New Brunswick. It contains stories by Sharyn McCrumb, Joyce Carol Oates and Anne Perry. They were well written, but all of them were more serious than I expected, even the story by Sharron McCrumb. It took me longer to read than it should have, because some of the subject matter was uglier than I would have liked. The book did definitely make an impression on me, though, which is always good.
