ID: Crimes of Identity

A woman contemplating suicide on Beachy Head finds a bench dedicated to the memory of herself.

An art lover in Venice conducts a spree of mutilations as a response to the Surrealist Movement.

The latest showcase of shorts from the CWA celebrates the 'who' in the whodunnit, the psyche behind the psychological profile... Husbands lead double lives, psychologists confuse perpetrators with ex-partners, neighbours reassess the people they thought they knew. It seems if there's one thing you can't classify or slap an ID card on, it's the id.

Sins of Scarlet , by Robert Barnard, included in this volume, has won the CWA Short Story Award for 2006.
