Overview: The 27 stories in this collection range from a detective debut in 1943 to a first appearance in print in 1979, a span of 36 years. The opening “first” was written by a 15-year-old schoolboy, and the closing “first” by a retired schoolteacher who gave her age as “plenty plus.” In between are three EQMM first stories that were awarded Edgars by the Mystery Writers of America for best mystery short story of the years in which they were published.
