The beauty of the short story collection is that it doesn't ask for the same investment of time and concentration, and if one doesn't appeal it's no great shame. I won't say I'm easily pleased (because I'm not) but I have found these anthologies particularly good - probably as much because they fit so well into my day as anything else. the one that's on my wish list is the Mummy collection they have coming out in October, I hope that's going to be as bonkers as it sounds.

I love these collections and can't have enough of them. Not just crime fiction but short stories generally. They're just what I need to fill up those odd gaps in the day spent on buses or tea breaks.

Last year I got a set of eleven of these British Library Crime Classics, and so far have only read one, and didn't pick the right one. 'Murder In Piccadilly' was not quite my cup of tea, so to speak, but this collection sounds very appealing, and what lovely cover art too.Lorihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11834243825586087161noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8011557877105021955.post-38718910158047546002016-04-25T01:42:27.001+01:002016-04-25T01:42:27.001+01:00This looks like a great collection!

I've read some of her non Campion stories and enjoyed them.Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17782561487396697870noreply@blogger.com
