The standout in this collection is a tale about a man who ends up crucified in a construction site, and the detective who is sent to investigate. It's urban angst, a resurrection story and a mystery with more questions than answers. McCord has a Ray Bradbury approach to modern alienation, and knows how to make the most of a bad situation by tossing you into the center of the action, as he slips out the door.--oberc
