The e-book explosion has seen a deluge of short story and flash fiction collections, some decidedly  better than others.But Patti Abbott's Monkey Justice stands head and shoulders above almost all short story collections out there, e-book or not. This is a mature and assured collection of brilliant stories that show us a great deal about the lives of  the wide range of characters.Personal favourites include `The Instrument Of Her Desire', `Georgie' and `The Squatter' but there really isn't a duff story in this fantastic, brilliantly written collection which spans noir, crime, slice-of-life, gothic and just- ace - writing.
