Theodore Smith likes people to call him Dore. A strong but simple man, with simple pleasures. Snoopy comics. Bits of licorice dipped in chocolate.

But the simplest man can foil the cleverest crime.

And all because of Dore’s favorite candy.

“How Many Angels” – a fascinating historical mystery. Set in San Francisco during 1962, this short story also touches on a crime that no longer exists. From Stefon Mears, author of Sudden Death and Caught Between Monsters.
