This is a fabulous crime fiction short story collection that includes three Decker family tales ("The Garden of Eden" and "Open House" which focus on Peter and Rina and "Bull's-Eye" starring their daughter Cindy), which are just under a third of the page count. The compilation includes thirteen tales exclusively written by Faye Kellerman mostly in the 1990s, one joint entry with son Jesse ("Mummy and Jack"), and one with daughters Rachel and Ilana ("The Luck of the Draw"). Additionally there are two short autobiographical essays (also from the 1990s) dedicated to her Ms. Kellerman's parents. This is a strong fun anthology that showcases the talent of this writing family's matriarch with a little help from her offspring; only Jonathan is missing.
