    Anyone read it?
    Yes i think, short stories right? In fact, I'm convinced I read it twice, as somebody gave it to me again and after finishing it i knew i'd read it previously.

    My wife keeps track of all the book she reads, not a bad idea and would save me a few bob now again.

    Who's the author?

    Who's the author?
    Yes from what i can gather there are a few short stories. About two hundred pages written by John Williams ( Not the postman/player)

    They didn't agree with the book or it's content?

    Wrote in the mid 90s? Is there an updated version because i believe there were more developments years later regarding the police and real murderer?
