Review of Faithless by Joyce Carol Oates from Best American Noir of the Century

Spinetingler Magazine has put together a set of reviews of all the short stories in Best American Noir of the Century edited by James Ellroy and Otto Penzler, a collection of 39 stories (Houghton Mifflin Harcourt, 2010). I was asked to write the review of Faithless by Joyce Carol Oates originally published in the winter 1997 issue of Kenyon Review. It was then selected for inclusion in The Best American Mystery Stories 1998 and later served as the title story for her short story collection, Faithless: Tales of Transgression, published in 2001. You can read the review here and also check out the other reviews here.
