This US small press was ‘born out of irritation’. The editor grew tired of good crime fiction going out of print. Digital publishing arrived and so it became possible to republish old favourites and find new ones at a reasonable cost. The emphasis is still on republishing, but the editorial team ‘are very happy to see submissions of exciting new mysteries, and we guarantee to look at everything that comes in’.
The focus at Felony & Mayhem Press is on ‘literary mystery fiction’, and ‘prose matters a lot… We love wit, we love elegance, we love distinctive narrative voices.’
