I think Pronzini is a terrific short-story writer -- his
collections, SMALL FELONIES, GRAVEYARD PLOTS, ODDMENTS and
MORE ODDMENTS are well worth seeking out (particularly the
former two).
Since we're talking about Pronzini, this gives me (another)
opportunity to highly, highly recommend THE CRIMES OF JORDAN
WISE. Anyone who hasn't yet read this modern noir masterpiece
is shorting themselves of an incredibly compelling
read.
