About This Item
US: Sourcebooks, 2017. Paperback. Good. Mystery crime fiction written in the Golden Age of Murder "[R]eaders who appreciate careful plot development, slightly unusual detect ives, and logical denouements will relish this volume." -Library Journal Impossible crime stories have been relished by puzzle-lovers ever since the invention of detective fiction. Fiendishly intricate cases were particular ly well suited to the cerebral type of detective story that became so popul ar during the 'golden age of murder' between the two world wars. But the tr adition goes back to the days of Edgar Allan Poe and Wilkie Collins, and im possible crime stories have been written by such luminaries as Arthur Conan Doyle, G.K. Chesterton, Dorothy L. Sayers and Margery Allingham. This anthology celebrates their work, alongside long-hidden gems by less familiar writers. Together these stories demonstrate the range and high accomplishment of the classic British impossible crime story over more than half a century.
