I loved the multiple meanings behind the title of this book of short stories; these little murder mysteries, where Valley Fever includes the meaning of intensely hot summers that can cause a person so much anguish that murder seems inevitable. But Valley Fever also is, to those of us who live in the inland valleys of California, a disease hidden beneath the layers of dry dusty soil that strikes without warning and can sometimes be fatal. These stories capture perfectly the dark hidden underneath of the cities and towns in the San Joaquin Valley. I read this book during a three day heat wave when the thermometer in my yard screamed 115; it helped capture the mood perfectly. All the stories are interesting; many have a tongue-in-cheek gallows type humorous ending. The 3 writers have distinct voices, and I have several favorite stories from each of them in this collection. A very easy to read, and if your looking for a little murder and anarchy this book is a good choice. 4 stars. ( ) aucune critique | ajouter une critique
