Street Crimes: Tales of Mystery by H.L. LeRoy is a collection of four short stories that will make you smile, make you uncomfortable, and at times scare the daylights out of you. Mistake-proof is about a petty criminal, Howard Dellicott, who has run up a debt with the mob. In order to pay it off, he helps a friend rob a bank. Unfortunately, Howard simply doesn’t have what it takes for the higher level of criminal activity. In Rare Justice, Jillian Varela, P.I., takes on the cold case of a murdered child. She does it for free out of sympathy for a dying client. Jillian hopes that fate would not take her client to her destiny before the mystery is solved. Hollywood Hitman will take you on a tour of what Hollywood’s elite use as a more permanent solution to problems in their marriages and the man who performs that service for them. Finally, in The Game’s End, you’ll revisit Jillian Varela who is in a race against the clock to keep a naïve heiress who was arrested for murder out of prison. All four will keep you entertained and on the edge of your seat.

The four stories in the collection of Street Crimes: Tales of Mystery by H.L. LeRoy are well written, entertaining, and suspenseful. With each story, you’ll be drawn into a web of mystery which LeRoy will unravel slowly before your eyes in a way to keep you entertained and send chills up your spine as you flip to the next page. Entertaining, suspenseful and action-packed, Street Crimes: Tales of Mystery is a quartet that is perfect for someone on the go who wishes to enjoy a short mystery that can get under your skin in just minutes.
