MASTERS OF MAYHEM: The 1965 Mystery Writers of America Anthology

This collection perhaps tops its predecessors in its departure from the usual thematic structure. This time, it is as versatile as its contributors, ranging from Miriam Allen deFord's standard suspense Touch and Blow to Carl Henry Rathjen's gothic touch in He Was Frightened to Robert Edmond Alter's light fantastic She Fell Among Thieves. In batten these extremes, there are bright, substantial works from such talents as Anthony Boucher and Ray Bloch. Twenty-four surprises. Masterful mayhem indeed.
