Description
In this collection, the editors brought together the most enjoyable, entertaining examples of "all types of the modern mystery." No previous mystery anthology has assembled so much material in a single collection *or* combined novels, novelettes, and shorter matter. Much of the material is appearing in book form for the first time or had not been obtainable for a number of years. Here you will find stories of detection and of fear; of puzzles resolved and of perils escaped. American mysteries, English mysteries, and one French mystery. Deductive masterpieces and fun sleuthing adventures. Serious stories, tender stories, humorous stories. SOME of the included authors are: Agatha Christie, Erle Stanley Gardner, Mary Roberts Rinehart, Ellery Queen, Dorothy L. Sayers, Rex Stout, Ngaio Marsh, and Daphne Du Maurier.
