Book excerpt: In the small town of Senoia, Georgia—where everything is a skip, hop, or short bus ride away—what could possibly go wrong? Aging Detective Garrett Sandoval stumbles upon strange events that result in a missing person’s case. Details of the crime send him down memory lane, back to a time when his career was just beginning. Years ago, women went missing in nightclubs. Now, their cases are reopened as a copycat shows up and more women disappear. Witnesses mention flickering lights and a popping sound before women vanish. All they leave behind are fancy high-heeled shoes. The case escalates, however, when the culprit leaves a note that says, “I’m back!” Maybe Sandoval doesn’t deal with a copycat but the original villain. An unlikely team comes together to solve this mystery, including several detectives, a burlesque dancer, and a writer, all following clues that lead down a dark and twisted path. Sandoval gets closer and closer to his old nemesis, while balancing on the metaphorical point of a stiletto with the past nipping at his heels.

Download or read book If Lions Could Speak and Other Stories written by Paul Park and published by Wildside Press LLC. This book was released on 2002-04-01 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If Lions Could Speak is the first collection from Paul Park, acclaimed author of The Starbridge Chronicles, Coelestis, and The Gospel of Corax. Subtle, stylish, at once forthrightly simple and ingeniously complex, the pieces gathered here are compelling and penetrating explorations of cultural difference and psychological crisis, regret and reconciliation. It is a marvelous literary labyrinth, a realm of memory palaces, eerie doppelgangers, terrifying theocracies, implosive revelations. Here time travel, sordid and ludicrous, becomes emblematic of how all lives are led; here, disease is an index to how the past is rewritten; here, the Other, extravagantly alien or simply alienated, can collapse into the Self with the suddenness of a lethal gunshot. Sometimes sardonically hilarious, sometimes gravely humane, always fiercely shocking, these stories constitute one of the finest bodies of short fiction by any contemporary SF writer. "Paul Park's short stories are subtle, blunt, funny, distressing, strange, true--all these qualities, often all at once--they are like those dreams or nightmares that seem to plumb right to the meaning of things. In other words, beautiful fiction." --Kim Stanley Robinson. "Genre writing is both a liberation and a confinement. If those who don't read science fiction could discover Paul Park, they would find a writer as complex, as skillful, as ambitious and as many-faceted as any they will find under any rubric. I hope this collection will help them discover him. The rest of us can simply open and enjoy." --John Crowley. "Paul Park does not remind us of James Sallis or Marcel Proust; the mark of genius is that it never makes us recall anyone else, not even earlier selves." --Gene Wolfe.
