A unique collection of the finest Golden Age mystiers - puzzling whodunnits that have entertained and delighted readers for centuries.


With Edgar Award-winning Otto Penzler as guide, delve into an irresistible collection of the finest Golden Age American whodunits, including household names and master storytellers, such as F. Scott Fitzgerald, Ellery Queen and Mary Roberts Rinehart, as well as Ring Lardner, Melville Davisson Post and Helen Reilly.

Featuring a murder so baffling that only a stage magician could solve it, a barber who slowly reveals his dark past over the course of a deadly haircut, and an investigation impeded by too many detectives, this anthology features the very best puzzling whodunnits that put the reader's crime-solving skills to the test.
