5.0

my friend (!!!) is in this so i may be moderately biased but his story (The Trunk, first in this issue) is 12/10. i don't make the rules. other standouts include but are not limited to Estelle Phillips' Tenderness and Chris Harding Thornton's Dead Man's Cocktail. Tenderness especially is visually stunning, and The Trunk is fantastic character work and wit, up there with my crime favorites.

brb need to catch up on all RaHP issues so far.
