canine edge. New York Times–bestselling author J.A. Jance provides a spellbinding saga of a scam-busting septuagenarian and her two golden retrievers. Anthony Award-winner and Agatha and Edgar Award finalist Virginia Lanier’s thrilling tale features bloodhounds and bloody murder. Edgar and Anthony nominee Chassie West’s suspenseful stunner is about a life-saving German shepherd and a ghastly forgotten crime. And Lee Charles Kelley, author of the series starring criminologist-turned-dog trainer Jack Field, offers an edge-of-your-seat yarn that pits an ex-cop kennel owner and a yappy toy poodle against a craven killer.Man’s (and woman’s) best friends take the lead in this phenomenal collection of tales tense and surprising, humorous and thrilling.Praise for the contributors“One of the best mystery writers in North America.” —Ottawa Citizen on J.A.

&“A diverse and thoughtful array of 16 stories written around the theme of endangered species—be they human or animal, mythical…
or alien.&” —Publishers Weekly In this poignant yet uplifting anthology about extinction, science fiction stories draw you into compelling, adventurous, and even humorous tales that will make you think about the future of animals, humanity, and the world around us. You&’ll find bugs and buffalo, humans and aliens, creatures that have never existed in our universe and genetically-engineered ones that shouldn&’t. In &“Seventy-Two Letters&” by national bestselling author Ted Chiang—praised by Strange Horizons as &“one of the finest representations of the SF subgenre of steampunk&”—a discovery reveals that humanity has only a fixed number of generations to survive. A project is embarked upon that could save the species—or open it up to a most inhuman manipulation. A Joe Haldeman poem called &“Endangered Species&” encapsulates his concerns about war and its effect on the human race. And in &“Listening to Brahms&” by Suzy McKee Charnas, the last humans alive make first contact with an alien race of lizard-like creatures who appropriate Earth culture at their own peril. In Vanishing Acts, these tales and others &“make the reader stop and think about endangered species—including humanity—which is, after all, the point&” (Rambles.NET). &“[A] splendid new original anthology.&” —The Washington Post
