Description

Though women crime and suspense writers dominate today's bestseller lists, the extraordinary work of the mid-century pioneers of the genre is largely unknown. Their work, influential in its day and still vibrant and extraordinarily riveting today, is long overdue for rediscovery. Here they are collected in a beautifully produced hardback box-set. Including novels from Vera Caspary, Helen Eustis, Dorothy B. Hughes, Elizabeth Sanxay Holding, Charlotte Armstrong, Patricia Highsmith, Margaret Millar and Dolores Hitchens.

She is the news editor for Publishers Marketplace and her work has appeared in The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, the National Post, the Los Angeles Times, and The Washington Post, among other publications. Weinman lives in Brooklyn, New York.
