Who are the: Guilty Creatures

A Menagerie of Mysteries

by Martin Edwards

Martin Edwards is an excellent editor. He has curated many story collections for Poisoned Pen Press. Here he has put together another interesting group of stories.

As is noted in this title’s introduction, animals are an often overlooked element in mystery fiction. Well, no longer with this collection of fourteen stories. Here are Monkeys, Dogs, Parakeets, even Earthworms, and more.

Those who enjoy mystery stories and are looking for a slightly different focus will enjoy this title. Following the interesting and intelligent introduction, dive into this collection in any order. Each story is ably introduced by Mr. Edwards, beginning with the first entry by Arthur Conan Doyle.

Many thanks to NetGalley and Poisoned Pen Press for this title. All opinions are my own.
