Carolyn G. Hart presents Malice Domestic (4) (v. 4)
DescriptionCarolyn G. Hart, Agatha Award-winning author of over nine critically acclaimed mystery novels, hosts an urbane gathering of today's A-list of mystery writers in this all-new collection. Superbly toasting Agatha Christie, the world's most beloved crime writer, this book presents traditional mystery stories at their wicked, magnificent best.
Kill the Messenger
DescriptionDECEASED AUTHOR COMES BACK TO KILL THE MESSENGER Adultery, greed, blackmail, various disgruntled offspring, a few too many other women, a repressed secretary, and a jealous reporter. These are just a sampling of the motives and suspects in the murder of a philandering, outspoken publisher who is trying to keep his paper from the hands of eager buyers. With Kill the Messenger, the late Elizabeth Daniels Squire s classic-style mystery contains persistently far-flung evidence. The author, however, is on top of the story and keeps a reader guessing until the bitter end. A journalist and an avid mystery reader, Squire s experiences as a newspaper reporter provided the background for this, her first published mystery. Five Star Publications, Inc. is republishing this, along with Squire s complete Peaches Dann mystery sleuth series in the launching of their new Five Start Sleuth division. Squire was born into the newspaper business. Her grandfather, Josephus Daniels, Secretary of the Navy under Woodrow Wilson, was a controversial editor and publisher. Although he was never murdered, he was often threatened. Her father, Jonathan Daniels, was press secretary for Presidents Roosevelt and Truman. Her husband C. B. Squire was a New York Times correspondent. After writing this initial mystery, she went on to write the soon to be re-released Peaches Dann mystery series, won the prestigious Agatha award, and was posthumously inducted into the North Carolina Literary Hall of Fame.
