Inhaltsangabe

At the cutting edge of crime fiction, Mystery Weekly Magazine presents original short stories by the world’s best-known and emerging mystery writers.


The stories we feature in our monthly issues span every imaginable subgenre, including cozy, police procedural, noir, whodunit, supernatural, hardboiled, humor, and historical mysteries. Evocative writing and a compelling story are the only certainty.


Get ready to be surprised, challenged, and entertained--whether you enjoy the style of the Golden Age of mystery (e.g., Agatha Christie, Arthur Conan Doyle), the glorious pulp digests of the early twentieth century (e.g., Dashiell Hammett, Raymond Chandler), or contemporary masters of mystery.


In this issue:


“Capes And Masks” by Richard Helms: New York private eye Eddie Shane has a secret. He is actually Captain Courage, a superhero. And, now, he has a problem. Two other superheroes have died mysteriously in the last week, including his close friend Blade Mistress. Eddie might be next.


“Remote Storage” by Susan Hammerman: From the light in the hallway, John Connelly saw a pork chop hand inch through the attached shards of glass in the window frame of the door and reach for the doorknob and the lock. How would he survive this imminent danger?


“The Illusion Of Control” by Josh Pachter: People like to feel as if they're in control of their own destinies … but that's not always the reality. …


“The Will And Wayne Show” by Adam Chase: Will and Wayne are losers looking for a big score. What they get is big alright, but not exactly a score.


In “Dinner And …” by Bruce Harris, a fan of murder mystery dinner theaters stars in her own murder game.
“Speak Of The Devil” by Jeanne Dubois: A side-trip into rural Florida turns deadly and escape relies on the joined forces of the very youthful and the very seasoned.


In “The Impatient Inmate” by Michael Scherer, Caleb Hunter escaped from prison with ten days left to serve and then turned himself in the next day. Everyone thought it pretty damn stupid. But Hunter had a plan, and it wasn’t stupid.
“Murderer's Paradise” by Michael Mallory: When a print of a legendary, long-lost motion picture produced by a genuine Hollywood maverick is discovered, it's a film-buff's dream, at least until an attempted screening results in murder. What could be in the old movie that is worth killing for?


Plus, “Face The Music”—a You-Solve-It by Peter Dichellis.
