Fans of classic mysteries, mystery and horror short stories and translated literature will enjoy this collection of tales. A delight of 15 stories, at least half of which will take your fancy and make the purchase worthwhile. I particularly enjoyed the macabre Japanese horror story featuring spiders and the Christmas antidote "Footprints in the Snow". While I would have re-arranged the order of the stories, there were many surprises and enjoyments - puzzles and locked rooms aplenty.

A really interesting collection of short stories written from nearly unknown writers from different countries.
Really entertaining, the story are fascinating description of how mystery were written during the Golden Age outside the English speaking countries.
Recommended.
