Paradise is a bustling city with everything going for it. On the surface, it is picturesque and lives up to its name. in reality, it does everything to be the opposite.
"Keep It Quiet" is an excerpt that takes a glance into the history of the city’s heavy mob influences. A key player in the Wunderlun family crime empire makes his debut appearance, setting a tone for savagery.
"The Counterfeiter" is set in a more modern timeline, and serves as a sneak peek into the life of one of the city’s lesser known but still devious citizens.
The sampling concludes with "The Hitchhiker", a teaser in which right and wrong blur together in an unsettling manner. This tale is told in first person and is the only flash fiction contained in this collection that is written from this perspective. It is also unique because it is not set in the city of Paradise itself. However, it does occur in the same fictional universe, as the narrator travels through the country on her way to lights of the big city.
