A twisty collection of short stories from the master of classic crime fiction, Peter Lovesey, one of which stars his most popular creation, Peter Diamond. Encouraged by crime-writing star Ruth Rendell, Lovesey started writing short stories forty years ago and this collection marks his hundredth short story in print. He says in his foreword:Almost all of [the stories] are about groups or individuals with an interest or a way of life that is unexpectedly visited by crime. Mostly they are unlikely protagonists: a romantic novelist, a dressmaker, a beekeeper, a brotherhood of monks, a bookseller, the cast of a play, an obituary writer, an entrant for a fancy hat contest and a lady seeking advice for a personal problem. In each, you will learn a little about their activities just as I did and I hope you will be surprised and entertained by discovering how the crime emerges.Read on for a collection like no other from an assured voice in crime fiction.
