Grab Bag

DASTARDLY DILEMMAS... MYSTERIOUS AFFAIRS... FELONIOUS FELLOWSHIPS

They're all ready to pop out of this potpourri of perilous predicaments from the Queen of the Whimsical Whodunit, CHARLOTTE MACLEOD. Featuring all her favorite sleuths--Max Bittersohn and Sarah Kelling, Professor Peter Shandy, Augustus Fox--and the eccentric enclaves of New England's cities and countryside, these short stories are packed with wacky, wonderful humor and good old-fashioned suspense.

There's murder in a massage parlor, dreadful doings at a British dinner party, larceny for sale at a general store, sinister schemes at Balaclava College, and merry mayhem from Boston to Maine--in this grab bag of fun-filled mysteries, which includes five never-before-published tales of murder most foul.
