Description
The Classic Crime Collection is a brilliant compendium of crime short stories that will satisfy any crime fiction fan. Perfect for dipping into or devouring in one go, there are mystifying stories from such well-known crime writers as Wilkie Collins, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, G. K. Chesterton, and Edgar Wallace, but also gems that rarely see the light of day, like the stories from Anton Chekhov, Marie Belloc Lowndes, and Anna Katharine Green, who was once described as "the mother of the detective novel." There are classic whodunits, cases of stolen gems, scary stories, and police procedurals, all waiting for you to see if you can solve the puzzle before you get to the end. ABOUT THE SERIES: The Arcturus Pulp Classics series brings together classic short story collections from across the fantasy, science fiction, and horror genres, strikingly presented in hardback gift editions with silver cover accents and full-color page edges.
