3.0

This was an okay read. Honestly I skipped though a couple of the stories that didn't hold my interest after several pages, but there were some that I really enjoyed. A good way to get exposed to mystery writers I'm not already familiar with.

I have given this collection of short stories 3/5 because though the first few were brilliantly written and well thought out the later especially Dorothy Lumley’s fourth quadrant and the last dead of winter by Richard A Lupoff were tedious horrendous in its plot and completely absurd in its detectives. So 3/5 for me
