Working our way through the table of contents, we have a pair of original mysteries by OโNeil De Noux and Shannon Taft, thanks to our hardworking Acquiring Editors, Michael Bracken and Barb Goffman. James Holding has a crime story, and Golden Age British mystery author J.J. Connington adds a terrific novel.
For adventure (and nature) lovers, somethingโs fishy in โOnly a Sucker Bites,โ a whopper of a story about lake pike.
On the fantasy end of things, we have a tale of astral projection from Adrian Cole, a vintage zombi (or jumbee) story by Henry S. Whitehead first published in Weird Tales, and a pair of vintage science fiction stories by Arthur Leo Zagat and George O. Smith.
