Catch and Release by Lawrence Block
One of the most highly acclaimed novelists in the crime genre, Lawrence Block is also a master of the short story. The sixteen stories (and one stage play ) collected here feature appearances by some of Block s most famous characters, including burglar Bernie Rhodenbarr and private detective Matt Scudder, as well as glimpses into the minds of a rogue's gallery of killers, sociopaths, and crooked cops. You'll meet a compulsive hoarder whose towering piles of trash and treasures hide disturbing secrets.a beautiful young tennis star with a possessive secret admirer.a dealer in stolen art who is unwilling to part with his most prized possession.poker players with agendas that have nothing to do with the cards in their hands.and a catch-and-release fisherman whose preferred catch walks on two legs.
