Copyright and written by Hal Savage,\nThe author has put together ten rather unusual stories, two labeled as novellas. The first, entitled \u201cThe Woman across the Hall\u201d is one of misinterpretation of body language while most of the others deal with some form of mystery, crime and\/or detection with also a missing persons, a sick practical joke tale and one of revenge.\nDiscussion: From this reader\u2019s point of view the collection is unique in that the stories are rather unusual with some dark turns that lead to somewhat unexpected endings. The 4th, 5th and 10th are perhaps the best detective stories and the 9th is as labeled \u201cOne Dumb Stunt\u201d, but to reiterate, all terminate unusually and several strain credibility to a degree.<\/h5>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"make-column-clickable-elementor elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-859fd30\" style=\"cursor: pointer;\" data-column-clickable=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Roadhouse-Rendezvous-Other-Stories-Savage-ebook\/dp\/B015RWLFEA\/ref=sr_1_1?dchild=1&amp;qid=1634926521&amp;qsid=146-5642839-4866265&amp;refinements=p_27%3AHal+Savage&amp;s=digital-text&amp;sr=1-1&amp;sres=B015RWLFEA&amp;text=Hal+Savage\" data-column-clickable-blank=\"_self\" data-id=\"859fd30\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-5cc1e8c elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"5cc1e8c\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">\tFaith Lee<\/h2>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-d70f9f8 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"d70f9f8\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Creepy, melancholic, yet entertaining.<\/h2>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-04e1dfb elementor--star-style-star_fontawesome elementor-widget elementor-widget-star-rating\" data-id=\"04e1dfb\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"star-rating.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-star-rating__wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-star-rating\" title=\"4\/5\" itemtype=\"http:\/\/schema.org\/Rating\" itemscope=\"\" itemprop=\"reviewRating\"><i class=\"elementor-star-full\">&#xE934;<\/i><i class=\"elementor-star-full\">&#xE934;<\/i><i class=\"elementor-star-full\">&#xE934;<\/i><i class=\"elementor-star-full\">&#xE934;<\/i><i class=\"elementor-star-empty\">&#xE934;<\/i> <span itemprop=\"ratingValue\" class=\"elementor-screen-only\">4\/5<\/span><\/div>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-0b03b4a elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"0b03b4a\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h5 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Reviewed in the United States on July 1, 2019\nVerified Purchase\n\"Roadhouse Rendezvous and Other Stories\" is a collection of short stories that originate from true incidents or from squalid poverty and misfortune. Some of which are seemingly imaginative and coming from the inner recesses of twisted minds.\n\nThe short stories are easy to read and great for small pockets of leisure time. Some stories are rather creepy while others are melancholic. Reading the stories seem to transport you back in time with characters featuring cowboys, local Indians and even the Klu Klux Klan.\n\nA rather adventurous and entertaining read. I would recommend this book to anyone who loves a dark and realistic tale.<\/h5>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-inner-section elementor-element elementor-element-3c5d78b elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"3c5d78b\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"make-column-clickable-elementor elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-21a84ce\" style=\"cursor: pointer;\" data-column-clickable=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Roadhouse-Rendezvous-Other-Stories-Savage-ebook\/dp\/B015RWLFEA\/ref=sr_1_1?dchild=1&amp;qid=1634926521&amp;qsid=146-5642839-4866265&amp;refinements=p_27%3AHal+Savage&amp;s=digital-text&amp;sr=1-1&amp;sres=B015RWLFEA&amp;text=Hal+Savage\" data-column-clickable-blank=\"_self\" data-id=\"21a84ce\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-8ef4792 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"8ef4792\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Mint tea<\/h2>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-12cd499 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"12cd499\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Good collection, easy to read!<\/h2>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-8cd9264 elementor--star-style-star_fontawesome elementor-widget elementor-widget-star-rating\" data-id=\"8cd9264\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"star-rating.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-star-rating__wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-star-rating\" title=\"4.5\/5\" itemtype=\"http:\/\/schema.org\/Rating\" itemscope=\"\" itemprop=\"reviewRating\"><i class=\"elementor-star-full\">&#xE934;<\/i><i class=\"elementor-star-full\">&#xE934;<\/i><i class=\"elementor-star-full\">&#xE934;<\/i><i class=\"elementor-star-full\">&#xE934;<\/i><i class=\"elementor-star-5\">&#xE934;<\/i> <span itemprop=\"ratingValue\" class=\"elementor-screen-only\">4.5\/5<\/span><\/div>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-1cc9683 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"1cc9683\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h5 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">I found this to be an interesting collection of short stories. They are very well written and cover a variety of topics and situations. I liked the first few the most, although many of them are quite entertaining. It is hard to know when one ends and another begins, so you\u2019ll likely have to backtrack every now and then. There were a few I didn\u2019t enjoy as much as others, but the characters are pretty well written for the stories being so brief. You may be sorry when some of the tales end, since you\u2019d like to see more of where the story is going. The good thing is you get to decide what happens instead. Some books do not let you do this. Overall, it is a breezy read that I demolished in one afternoon and there is a good chance you\u2019ll get engrossed into it as well if you let yourself.<\/h5>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"make-column-clickable-elementor elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-a1c9c46\" style=\"cursor: pointer;\" data-column-clickable=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Roadhouse-Rendezvous-Other-Stories-Savage-ebook\/dp\/B015RWLFEA\/ref=sr_1_1?dchild=1&amp;qid=1634926521&amp;qsid=146-5642839-4866265&amp;refinements=p_27%3AHal+Savage&amp;s=digital-text&amp;sr=1-1&amp;sres=B015RWLFEA&amp;text=Hal+Savage\" data-column-clickable-blank=\"_self\" data-id=\"a1c9c46\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7193439 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"7193439\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Amy k.<\/h2>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-1a49fe2 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"1a49fe2\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Very Entertaining<\/h2>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-4148791 elementor--star-style-star_fontawesome elementor-widget elementor-widget-star-rating\" data-id=\"4148791\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"star-rating.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-star-rating__wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-star-rating\" title=\"4\/5\" itemtype=\"http:\/\/schema.org\/Rating\" itemscope=\"\" itemprop=\"reviewRating\"><i class=\"elementor-star-full\">&#xE934;<\/i><i class=\"elementor-star-full\">&#xE934;<\/i><i class=\"elementor-star-full\">&#xE934;<\/i><i class=\"elementor-star-full\">&#xE934;<\/i><i class=\"elementor-star-empty\">&#xE934;<\/i> <span itemprop=\"ratingValue\" class=\"elementor-screen-only\">4\/5<\/span><\/div>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7e84f10 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"7e84f10\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h5 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">I love books that contain multiple stories in them, they really just offer something new, different, and fun with every turn of the page, and you never really know what is around the corner. That is precisely what you get with \u201cRoadhouse Rendezvous and Other Stories\u201d. While the stories are quite similar in terms of the \u201cL.A. Noir\u201d style of 1940\u2019s mob and crime, each one has its own unique twists and turns that keep you guessing until the very end. They take you into the world of crime and really take you into the dark bunkers of cat and mouse-like games and these stories truly are entertaining overall.<\/h5>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-c649d88 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"c649d88\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-no\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"make-column-clickable-elementor elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-4b867d2\" style=\"cursor: pointer;\" data-column-clickable=\"https:\/\/halsavage.com\/HalSavage\/books\/\" data-column-clickable-blank=\"_self\" data-id=\"4b867d2\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-a00f78d elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"a00f78d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img width=\"225\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/halsavage.com\/HalSavage\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Hal-Savage-and-Cynthia-Gregory-225x300.jpg\" class=\"attachment-medium size-medium\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" srcset=\"https:\/\/halsavage.com\/HalSavage\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Hal-Savage-and-Cynthia-Gregory-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/halsavage.com\/HalSavage\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Hal-Savage-and-Cynthia-Gregory.jpg 720w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"make-column-clickable-elementor elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-2a78f94\" style=\"cursor: pointer;\" data-column-clickable=\"https:\/\/halsavage.com\/HalSavage\/books\/\" data-column-clickable-blank=\"_self\" data-id=\"2a78f94\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-aa3de4f elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"aa3de4f\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h5 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">My Latest Novel<\/h5>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-b1bf038 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"b1bf038\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\"><a href=\"https:\/\/halsavage.com\/HalSavage\/books\/\">Follow the leader<\/a><\/h2>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-5a7a397 elementor-widget elementor-widget-button\" data-id=\"5a7a397\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"button.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-button-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/halsavage.com\/HalSavage\/books\/\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"elementor-button-link elementor-button elementor-size-sm\" role=\"button\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-content-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-icon elementor-align-icon-right\">\n\t\t\t\t<svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewBox=\"0 0 2048 2048\"><path d=\"M6.125 1088h1797.89l-402.976 403 89.994 90L2048 1024l-556.966-557-89.994 90 402.976 403H6.125v128z\"><\/path><\/svg>\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-text\">Read Chapter by chapter<\/span>\n\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hal Savage Crime writer Hal Savage writes noir tales based on true incidents.
