Christmas Crimes at The Mysterious Bookshop

Edited by Otto Penzler
Performed by Jennifer Pickens and Graham Rowat
Published by Highbridge

Twelve festive crime stories set in New York City’s beloved mystery bookstore. The prompt for the story requires three elements: that it be set at Christmastime, that it involve a crime of some kind, or the suspicion of one, and that it be set at least partially in the bookstore. And from these loose structural guidelines, diverse tales took flight. The result is, objectively speaking, the finest “stocking stuffer” that a mystery fan could hope to find.
