30 Mystery and Investigation Masterpieces (eBook)

From Edgar Allan Poe's pioneering tales of ratiocination to Arthur Conan Doyle's peerless detective fiction, this sweeping collection gathers thirty stories of crime, deduction, and hidden truth. Gaston Leroux's locked-room ingenuity, Maurice Leblanc's gentleman-thief capers, G. K. Chesterton's paradox-laden puzzles, and Wilkie Collins's sensation-novel suspense sit alongside contributions from Mark Twain, Jules Verne, and Thomas Hardy, tracing the mystery and investigation short story across a golden age of English-language fiction. Whether you crave a quiet drawing-room puzzle or a breathless chase, this anthology delivers thirty reasons to keep guessing until the last page. This Chronicle Vault edition presents the complete, unabridged texts in a clean, fully reflowable format for all e-readers.
