Crimes and Confusions: Five Historical Short Stories
Price:
$2.00
These five short stories feature a variety of times, places, and people, from medieval England to Bangor, Maine in 1888. Characters from the Face Down Mystery Series appear in some, and in others the detectives are drawn from the Diana Spaulding Mystery Quartet. Titles include "The Reiving of Bonville Keep," "The Kenduskeag Killer," "The Tell-Tale Twinkle," "Any Means Short of Murder," and "The Curse of the Figure-Flinger."
This is an original e-book publication. It is the length of a novella-a short book of perhaps 150 pages if it were published in traditional format.
The free sampler offered has the opening pages of each of the short stories, to give you an idea of what's in store for you in the collection. Enjoy!
Reviews:
I Love a Mystery on "The Reiving of Bonville Keep" and the reviewer's other "favorites" in Murder Most Medieval: "skillfully crafted tales, where character and mood are well developed along with a satisfying murder yarn". Linda Landrigan, editor of Alfred Hitchcock's Mystery Magazine, on "The Kenduskeag Killer": "out of the ordinary . . . a well-told, well-written historical".
