Mystery for Halloween (1991) Anthology by Cynthia Manson (ed. Sun77)
Requirements: ePUB reader, 0.6Mb
Overview: When the frost is on the pumpkin and the black cat howls, these sixteen stories will call forth the shivers and suspense that make October 31 a truly blood-red letter day. What better way to celebrate the macabre than with murder—murder mysteries, of course, selected from Alfred Hitchcock’s Mystery Magazine and Ellery Queen’s Mystery Magazine.
Dare to open these pages, and you’ll discover Alan Ryan’s tough West Coast P.I. who knows anything’s possible in California. Lawrence Treat sends his mild-mannered museum curator to inspect a haunted picture that’s not worth a thousand words, but only one. . .and it’s a real killer. Pauline Smith introduces us to a widow who’s very merry until her not-so-dearly departed spouse makes good on his threat. . .to come back. And thirteen more modern masters of the chilling word whip up a witch’s brew of mystery fiction—for a deliciously deadly trick or treat.
