Hi all,
I've just submitted for proofing "The Mammoth Book of Historical Whodunnits"
edited by Mike Ashley.
It's been read and spell-checked. Headers stripped, page numbers/chapter
titles present/protected, fonts adjusted.
522 pages.
Description:
Divided into three main sections, "The Ancient World", "The Middle Ages" and
"Regency and Gaslight", The Mammoth Book of Historical Whodunnits includes:
"The Thief versus Rhampsinitus" by Herodotus-probably the earliest detective
story ever written.
"The Locked Tomb Mystery", set in ancient Egypt, by Elizabeth Peters.
A new story by John Maddox Roberts featuring the young Roman detective
Decius Metellus.
Robert van Gulik's ingenious "He Came With the Rain", featuring Judge Dee, a
real-life character who lived in seventh-century China.
A new story by Peter Tremayne, set in seventh-century Ireland and featuring
Sister Fidelma.
Ellis Peters' Brother Cadfael story "The Price of Light".
Paul Harding's "The Confession of Brother Athelstan".
A classic locked-room mystery featuring Lillian de la Torre's popular
detective Sam Johnson.
A story by Michael Harrison featuring August Dupin, the detective created by
Edgar Allan Poe and the inspiration behind Sherlock Holmes.
John Dickson Carr's acclaimed "The Gentleman from Paris".
...and many more!
Deborah
