"Women make terrific sleuths" according to award-winning author Carolyn Hart. In these stories, Hart offers short crime fiction starring some of her most-winning women detectives. This collection features mysteries led by Henrietta O'Dwyer Collins—Henri O to her friends and fans—who "can charm the truth out of the most venomous foe" ( Publishers Weekly) as well as mystery bookstore proprietor Annie Laurance of the nationally-bestselling Death on Demand series, along with two standalone mysteries.
For fans of traditional and cozy mysteries, these tales from the Mystery Writers of America Grand Master are not to be missed.
Hart, an accomplished master of mystery, is the author of twenty previous Death on Demand novels. Her books have won multiple Agatha, Anthony, and Macavity Awards. She is also the creator of the Henrie O series which features a retired reporter, and the Bailey Ruth series which stars an impetuous, redheaded ghost. One of the founders of Sisters in Crime, Hart lives in Oklahoma City.
