    CanvaA water tower in a small American town seen at sunsetSmall-town crime is big. There’s never been a time when readers of mystery and crime novels didn’t like stories in rustic and rural settings. James M. Cain’s 1934 crime novel “The Postman Always Rings Twice”was grabbed up by readers — and banned in Boston — for its torrid story of a murderous affair in a roadside California town. Agatha Christie’s Hercule Poirot solved a murder in a small town in“The Murder of Roger Ackroyd” back in 1926.

    Carpe diem. That’s good advice: grab an opportunity immediately when you spot it. Don’t wait, make it happen. Even the Romans knew that embracing the moment, wringing everything out of this time, not fretting about the future was the way to live now. Seize the day, as in the new book “Small Town Sins” by Ken Jaworowski, before the opportunity is gone. kAm}2E92? $E@=EK H2D E96 <:?5 @7 8FJ E92E @E96C A6@A=6 C2C6=J ?@E:465]k^AmkAmp? @?=J 49:=5[ 96’5 2=H2JD =:G65 @?

    I’d recently finished my junior year of high school and was kicking around a few ideas on how to get out of Locksburg, a Central Pennsylvania backwater I’d wanted to flee ever since I was old enough to misspell its name.

The thriller is set in the fictional Locksburg, Pennsylvania, a former coal and steel town whose best days are long past.

Holy smokes, these stories are ALIVE, and full of my favorite kinds of characters: ones who are messy and complex, and vividly brought to life. 'Kittens' bruised my heart, and 'Porch Light Salvation' is eight pages of pure tension. Brava, @mgnlcs! @ShotgunHoney #books https://t.co/zF53mSYcQS

Another great thing about buying from @TheMysterious (besides supporting an independent bookstore) is that you can get signed copies! @AdamPlantinga @HarlanCoben #books #thrillerbooks https://t.co/fvisoDCCPG
