Klappentext
In this collection of Golden Age mysteries, crime strikes in the world of books...
'If much of the action is set in a bookshop or a library, it is a bibliomystery, just as it is if a major character is a bookseller or a librarian.' Otto Penzler
Of crime fiction's many sub-genres, none is as intriguing as the "bibliomystery": stories that involve crimes set in the world of books.
In these fourteen tales from the Golden Age of mystery fiction, a bookseller is murdered, a detective tracks the disappearance of a local author, and a killer stalks the shelves of the New York Public Library.
Collated by Edgar-Award-winning anthologist Otto Penzler, this volume features well-remembered authors such as Cornell Woolrich and Anthony Boucher, as well as stories from those that are lesser-known today. A love letter to books and to the mystery genre, this collection is guaranteed to entertain.
'A real treat for bibliophiles.' Kirkus
