Crime Syndicate Magazine is a quarterly magazine dedicated to hard-hitting crime fiction short stories. We do grit. We do mayhem. We do lust. We do violence. And greed, and larceny, and all things dastardly.

Crime Syndicate takes a unique communal approach to what we publish. We take on the services of a guest editor for each issue, usually a writer we admire, who helps us select the very best short crime fiction for the issue. This magazine is about more than our taste, it’s about the tastes and preferences of writers we love and admire. Crime Syndicate is a place to discover stories and styles that other crime writers love.

You’re invited to join our syndicate. We hope it’s an offer you can’t refuse!
