What was disappointing about this book is that it is not all strictly mystery stories.

Not All Mysteries

These are not the greatest mysteries of all time. Some do not rate as 'good' or 'fair'.

False title

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.

As with mot collections, the quality differs. I already had a few in collections of the respective authors. Several were outstanding. Several were good. Several were average. None were bad. The narration was uniformly very good.
