At long last, Midnight Schemers & Daydream Believers, the fifth Superior Shores Anthology releases this month. The first anthology, The Best Laid Plans, was launched on June 18, 2019, and being the superstitious sort, every one since has been released on June 18th.

Advance reviews have been great:

“What you see in the title is what you get with this book…twenty-two distinctive tales. It took me a while to read the entire book. These stories are like mini novels, in their power. I needed breathing time between them to mull over what made the twists work and what the authors had done to cleverly enable me to hold my breath in belief suspension for the length of their tale. There’s not a clunker in the bunch.”—Joan Leotta, multi-nominated author and storyteller 

“Editor Judy Penz Sheluk has assembled a stellar group of crime fiction authors for this extraordinary collection. Storytelling at its best!”— David Bart, short-story specialist, contributor to the Anthony Award-winning Mystery Writers of America anthology “Crime Hits Home.”  

“From thieves in a seedy Detroit bar to a nasty murder in Santa Cruz, Midnight Schemers & Daydream Believers reflects the creative knack of editor Judy Penz Sheluk, who has arranged these extraordinary stories by a host of talented authors into one fascinating anthology”—Wil A. Emerson, multi-published Derringer nominee.

“The twenty-two stories in Midnight Schemers and Daydream Believers encompass desire, dreams, and revenge in such a varied way that I had to read it cover to cover in one sitting! —Debra H. Goldstein, award-winning author (and fellow Stiletto Gang member)
