This anthology by the Mystery Writers of America is a virtuoso showcase including Robert Bloch's pre-Psycho schizophrenic. ""The Real Bad Friend""; Ellery Queen matching wits with George Washington; Joan Aiken dishing out a little horror with her ""Marmalade Wine""; Robert L. Fish checking out a super supermarket theft; Patricia Highsmith with two terrible little old ladies; Celia Fremlin and ""Something Evil in the House"" and many more... a versatile, volatile variety.
