I’m not sure how these escaped my notice
when they were first released, and now all I can say is wow. Seven or eight
months ago Crossroad Press released several novel collections, and they all
sound great. The on that caught my fancy is A
Murder of Mysteries. It features 20 novels by some of my favorite writers—
Too
Late to Die by Bill Crider
Death is a Cabaret by Deborah Morgan
A. P. B. by Dave Pedneau
Switch by William Bayer
Blood Moon by Ed Gorman
The Turner Journals by Robert J. Randisi
The Hanged Man by T. J. MacGregor

I have read five of these—Too Late to Die, Blood Moon, Dead on the Island, A Hard Day’s Death, and
Case File (a collection of Nameless
stories)—and really enjoyed each. A Murder
of Mysteries is available only as an
ebook, and the best part is the amazingly low price of $2.99.
Purchase a copy of A Murder of Mysteries at Amazon.

I ordered the horror II set. I haven't read much in it yet but am so excited about my purchase. What a deal. Thanks for telling us about it.
Thanks for posting this. What a deal! I've read a few of them, but there are so many other good ones here. I'm salivating!
You're welcome Matthew. It is a screamer of a deal. There is also a Thriller set, and a couple horror sets that look really good, too.
Anonymous, you'll have to let me know how you like the horror set. There are some really good writers included.
