This splendid collection of border fiction is haunting and intense. Bravo to San Diego Sisters in Crime. –T. Jefferson Parker, Edgar Award-winning author of The Last Good Guy

Good stories start with characters crossing borders and finding themselves in worlds filled with hurt, harm, and danger. In Crossing Borders, the first anthology from Partners in Crime, the San Diego Chapter of Sisters in Crime, fifteen stories capture moments before, during and after characters cross borders and find themselves stumbling around strange lands that abound with saints, sinners, and monsters.

Crossing Borders explores that liminal space–the place where people cross from not just from one place to another, like national boundaries, but the dividing line between life/death, stability/insanity, or innocence/guilt. This anthology contains stories that look at the duality of our lives, as we cross borders between people, values, and beliefs.

Join us as we explore crossings, where a character, involved somehow in a crime, must pass over a border, literally or figuratively. As Rachel Howzell Hall says in our foreword: Be prepared to hold your breath as we enter that special space of crossing, transitioning, change, and death. Welcome to the border.
