Synopsis

Following the great success of our Gothic Fantasy deluxe edition short story compilations, including Cosy Crime, Murder Mayhem and Lost Worlds, this exciting title in the series is packed with amateur detectives solving mysterious murders, suspicious butlers and terrifying encounters set in locked rooms, stately mansions, haunted castles and eerily silent libraries.

This collection contains our usual mix of classic and brand new writing, with delightful tales of dastardly dealings from authors such as Wilkie Collins, Anna Katharine Green, Gaston Leroux, Edgar Wallace and Oscar Wilde. Of course, new stories from contemporary authors give a voice to new writers through our open submission windows. The modern writers chosen from submissions and included here are: Steve Carr, Deborah L. Davitt, Lucy Ann Fiorini, Sahara Frost, Philip Brian Hall, Amanda Justice, Felicia Lee, Tom Mead, Wendy Nikel, Patsy Pratt-Herzog, Louise Taylor, and E.G. Thompson.
