The Best American Series
First, Best, and Best-Selling
"If you like all your characters living at the end of a story, this may not be the book for you."
— Scott Turow, guest editor
Since 1915 the Best American series has been the premier annual showcase for the country's finest short fiction and nonfiction. Each volume's series editor selects notable works from hundreds of periodicals. A special guest editor, a leading writer in the field, then chooses the very best twenty or so pieces to publish. This unique system has made the Best American series the most respected — and most popular — of its kind.
The Best American Mystery Stories 2006 includes Jeffery Deaver, Andrew Klavan, Jane Haddam, Elmore Leonard, Emily Raboteau, Joyce Carol Oates, Walter Mosley, Karen E. Bender, William Harrison, C.J. Box, Ed McBain, and others.
Scott Turow, guest editor, is the author of numerous best-selling novels, including Presumed Innocent, and his latest, Ordinary Heroes,. His books have been translated into more than twenty-five languages and have sold over twenty-five million copies worldwide.
