Come Let Us Kiss and Part by Nikki Dolson: One of those bleak short stories that seems inevitable and deflates you. Noice!
Mi Shebeirach by J. R. Angelella: Molly is usually just a driver, but finds herself having to take a more active role in crime. Short stories often end abruptly or with a bit of a gutpunch and this had a much needed more hopeful ending.

Twenty Centuries by James D. F. Hannah: Police officer investigates a strange death. Really liked this one.
If I Were a Rich Man by Lee Goldberg: Deceit upon twisted deceit. Most of the characters are gits. Resulted in a pretty cool story!

Johnny Christmas by Ivy Pochoda: Might be too strong a starting story, it set the bar pretty high.
Shamash by David L. Ulin: Bit of a slow one, but I liked the repeating themes, and the ending was good.
