Crime Through Time
Frankiecay avatar reviewed on


From back cover: Today's best American and British mystery authors are featured in this outstanding collection of original historical mysteries. The stories in Crime Through Time span thousands of years-from Steven Saylor's ancient Rome to Anne Perry's Victorian England-and feature an amazing variety of detectives-from Peter Lovesey's Prince Albert to Maan Meyers's Charles Dickens to Laurie King's Mrs. Hudson, housekeeper to Sherlock Holmes and a star sleuth in her own right.

These 21 historical whodunits were written specifically for this volume and are appearing for the first time in print.
