A collector's item- in a generous but fastidious display of talent, familiar and on occasion unfamiliar, provides a selection of superior excitement and entertainment values. Old timers, Robert Hichens, Thomas Burke, M. R. James, Saki, flank more modern contributors. You will (re)read and enjoy the savage reprisals of Roald Dahl's Nunc Dimittis, the haunting horror of Ray Bradbury's The October Game, the fatal dilemma of Stanley Ellin's The Moment of Decision, the dark bewitchment of John Collier's The Lady on the Grey and William Sansom's A Woman Seldom Found. And Arthur Williams' Being A Murderer Myself, Q. Patrick's Love Comes to Miss Lucy, Margaret St. Clair's The Perfectionist, Philip MacDonald's Love Lies Bleeding all contribute to a varied, vintage collection.
