Inspired by the genius of Hitchcock and his films, latin luminaries such as Argento and Bava directed macabre murder-mystery thrillers, that combined the suspense with scenes of outrageous violence, stylish cinematography, and groovy soundtracks. This genre became known in their native Italy as giallo. Giallo is Italian for yellow, inspired by the lurid covers of thrillers, in the way that pulp fiction was derived from the cheap wood pulp paper of the crime stories, or Film Noir came from the chiaroscuro of the German Expressionistic lighting. Craig Douglas and Jason Michel bring gialli-inspired stories together from some of the best crime writers on the scene today to a wider audience, giving birth to a new literary movement in crime writing, NeoGiallo, and drag this much maligned genre screaming and slashing its way into the 21st Century.

PLEASE NOTE: This anthology contains scenes with graphic depictions of sexual acts between consenting and wildly enthusiastic adults. We advise readers to read a maximum of two stories at a time to reduce the risk of overheating. Sex can be the greatest pleasure or the deepest disappointment. It’s an expression of love, a few moments of fun, the way to scratch an itch, a lifetime commitment and all with two (or more) bodies tangled in the dark. The human form comes together in perfect harmony, like musical instruments coming together to create the ultimate composition or concert.. Twelve authors have penned tales of sex, crime, revenge, ego, espionage, and unexplainable events, each involving a musical instrument commonly found in an orchestra. Couples, threesomes, group sex, same-sex, multiple partners, a bit of bondage, and one mermaid—no matter who they are or what configuration they choose to satisfy their lust, all participants soon learn it’s not just about sex. Of course, with just one wrong note…it’s murder. Sex & Violins features stories of crime and intimacy by Jack Bates, Laura Hazan, Anna V. Nelson, Chandler Christie, Albert Tucher, Shari Held, Karen Keeley, Joseph S. Walker, Linda K. Hardie, Steve Liskow, Wendy Harrison and Sandra Murphy.
