Customer Reviews

Death takes a holiday

An excellent sampler of modern (and not-so-modern) mystery writers, this book is a bit uneven in quality but generally lives up to its pedigree. The stories by Muller and Asimov shine. This collection is perfect if your Christmas is not complete without a little bloodshed.
