Sarah Pinsker writes an amazing range of stories, and all are enjoyable. The thread linking them all is strong characters--you get the sense of the people in a story right away, and keep it. So it is with The Blur in the Corner of Your Eye, the first one of hers that I have read in the horror space. Zanna the author and Sal the assistant have a great relationship, in pretty colorful circumstances. Zanna writes a series of detective novels where the investigator is in town just long enough to solve the murder mystery--much the way Zanna and Sal live. And in the story we find out why.
Read this for masterful writing, this is how you do it. 4 stars
