Three to the Heart by Rick Mofina

With his anthology, THREE TO THE HEART, Rick Mofina provides three of his finest short pieces of crime fiction. Three acclaimed, heart-wrenching short stories of people facing enormous odds.

An 11-year-old boy finds his dad’s gun and rushes to a deadly stand off at the mall. “Backup” by Rick Mofina is the gut-wrenching short story that was nominated for Canada’s top literary prize for crime fiction, the Arthur Ellis Award, in the category of Best Short Story, presented by the Crime Writers of Canada. “Backup” received further acclaim when it was named a finalist for a Best Short Story Award by The International Thriller Writers.

In “A Lifetime Burning in a Moment,” we meet John Devlin, a mild-mannered actuary and lifelong weakling who has been bullied much of his life, until one day he is forced to search for courage when his family is threatened while vacationing in a remote region far from help

In “The Last Pursuit,” a cop, desperate to redeem himself for the mistake that destroyed his life, works alone to track the murderer he was escorting to trial after their plane crashes in the Rocky Mountains.

Over the years, Rick Mofina’s short stories have been selected for various anthologies including those edited by Michael Connelly, Peter Robinson, Ed Gorman, and those produced for the International Crime Writers and the United Kingdom’s, Crime Writers Association.
