From O. Henry to Lilian Jackson Braun, North Carolina has nurtured
some of the world's best-known mystery writers. This unique
collection of mystery short stories showcases some of North
Carolina's best writing talent from the past and the present - some
famous, some less well known. Some of the mysteries are by authors
who have earned solid reputations in other genres, such as Orson
Scott Card and William Brittain, but as their stories here
demonstrate, their talent embraces the mysterious. The stories in
this collection are as diverse as the ""detectives"" they feature:
the Native American policeman who solves his first case on the
reservation; a Siamese cat with an intuitive affection for his
paraplegic neighbor; an attentive convenience store owner; and a
thirty-year-old computer whiz whose body stopped growing when he
was nine. They solve crimes, locate treasures, and uncover deceit
in a range of tales that reflects the breadth of the genre. With
stories to delight mystery devotees and fans of all good writing,
this anthology highlights one of the most vibrant and popular
elements of North Carolina's literary legacy.
