- Description
- "For any reader who likes to relax in the company of a murderer, this book will prove a delight. It offers a splendid range of murderous activity--twenty-three stories, running from exercises in detection in the classical tradition to the tale of explosive violence. Anyone at all knowledgeable about mystery fiction will find familiar and admired names among the contributors: Stanley Ellin is here, with a prize-winning story; you will find Ross MacDonald [that is, Macdonald], Mignon Eberhart, Andrew Garve, and many more"--Dust jacket.
