A good crime story compels us to step into the shoes of both the detective and the criminal. There are few literary joys comparable to the euphoria one experiences while tracing the steps from the crime scene to the moment the culprit is unveiled. From the ornate plotting of Edgar Allan Poe, to the shrewd twists of a tale by Arthur Conan Doyle to the hardboiled texture of Raymond Chandler, this anthology showcases some of the greatest mystery authors at the height of their prowess. Thrilling and haunting in equal measure, these stories won’t leave the reader’s mind after the last page has been turned.
