“Duel of the Aces” printing in Ellery Queen’s November/December issue

I’ve been sitting on this one for a few months – but since it’s now public on their website, I’m really excited to report that my short story, “Duel of the Aces” will be featured in Ellery Queen’s Mystery Magazine in the November/December issue!

Ellery Queen is the WORLD’S LEADING mystery magazine. It has been cited as “the finest periodical of its kind” by The Readers’ Encyclopedia of American Literature and as “the best mystery magazine in the world, bar none” by Stephen King.

And I’m really proud of “Duel of the Aces,” a really fun noir piece set in the 1960s about a game of pool with a whole lot more riding on the outcome than the final score.

The issue drops on October 20.
