The Listerdale Mystery

These twelve perfectly-plotted short stories admirably illustrate the verve and virtuosity of the most widely-read crime novelist in the English language.

Ranging with characteristic assurance from the light-hearted to the macabre, diverse mysteries are most ingeniously and plausibly contrived and convincingly unraveled, including how…

a Nursery Rhyme solved a murder…
the Shawl of a Thousand Flowers brought inspiration to a perspiring author…
a Diamond Necklace turned mouse into man…
Grand Opera betrayed a passion…
and why a Noble Lord vanished apparently without a trace in… The Listerdale Mystery
