Book Description
 

CHRISTMAS AT THE MYSTERIOUS BOOKSHOP by Otto (Editor) Penzler - FIRST EDITION BOOK

See all titles by Otto Penzler.

A suspenseful and unique collection of Christmas stories edited by award-winning Otto Penzler, including works by major bestselling authors Mary Higgins Clark, Anne Perry, and Lawrence Block

Lawrence Block's "As Dark as Christmas Gets," features the author's hilarious versions of Nero Wolfe and Archie Goodwin, eccentric rare fish collector Leo Haig and his leg man, Chip Harrison, who look into the disappearance of an unpublished Cornell Woolrich manuscript. While the many inside jokes will go over the heads of some, all will appreciate such tongue-in-cheek touches as a customer in Ed McBain's "I Saw Mommy Killing Santa Claus" needing reassurance that Janet Evanovich is not yet another Evan Hunter pseudonym. Other contributors include Donald E. Westlake, Mary Higgins Clark, Anne Perry, Thomas H. Cook, and S.J. Rozan.

Even readers who have never visited either location of Penzler's legendary Manhattan bookstore should enjoy this anthology of 17 short stories, each of which was originally published as a stand-alone pamphlet and given to faithful Mysterious Bookshop customers.
