Collins Crime Club, 2020

Celebrating Ray Bradbury's centenary, this collection commemorates his finest crime stories – tales as strange and wonderful as his signature fantasy. Time travellers…dark carnivals…living automata…and detectives? Honouring the 100th birthday of Ray Bradbury, renowned author of Fahrenheit 451, this new, definitive collection of the master's less well-known crime fiction features classic stories and rare gems, a number of which became episodes of Alfred Hitchcock Presents and The Ray Bradbury Theater, including the tale Bradbury called ‘one of the best stories in any field that I have ever written’. Is it murder to destroy a robot if it looks and speaks and thinks and feels like a human being? Can a ventriloquist be incriminated by the testimony of his own dummy? Can a time traveller prevent his younger self from killing the woman they both loved? And can the survivor of a pair of Siamese twins investigate his own brother's murder? No other writer has ever rivalled the imagination and narrative gifts of Ray Bradbury, and the 20 unforgettable stories in this collection demonstrate this singular writer's extraordinary range, influence and emotional power. This award-winning collection, long-listed for numerous prizes, showcases Bradbury's top-notch narrative skills in the realm of crime fiction. Each tale, a classic in its own right, is a thrilling adventure that pushes the boundaries of imagination and reality. For fans of Stephen King (The Outsider), Cormac Mccarthy (No Country for Old Men), Pds 4 Books (The Mysterious Affair at Styles), Max Allan Collins (Quarrys Deal), and Mickey Spillane (The Last Stand).
