Summary:
For years, the Midwest has been used as a stand-in for "average America," but is "Midwestern nice" merely a cover for what really goes on in this part of the country? John Wayne Gacy, the bloody Benders, and Jeffrey Dahmer were all Midwesterners. To celebrate Bouchercon, the world's largest mystery fan convention, in Minneapolis in 2022, editor Greg Herren is proud to present a series of tales that will shock and surprise you. Featuring authors from all over the Midwest who know just how dark and lonesome it can get out there in the country at night, these crime stories will entertain you with their trip down the dark side of the "real America." -- Adapted from back cover.
