New Releases

From over 3,000 considered stories published in the past year, this anthology contains the twenty best, selected by #1 New York Times bestselling author John Grisham under the auspices of New York City's legendary crime fiction specialty store The Mysterious Bookshop. Included are tales of suspense, detection, and puzzlement that illuminate the diversity of styles contained under the "mystery" umbrella and highlight some of the greatest practitioners of the short form working today, with a blend of household names and lesser known writers no less worthy of your attention.

In the twilight of the 19th century, reason begins to rot. Across fog-drenched moors, beneath the catacombs of Parliament, and within the haunted silence of museum vaults, ancient forces stir—unbound by time, myth, or law. Vampires broker immortality contracts in London’s salons. A mummy stalks oath-breakers with divine judgment. Mina Harker raises an empire of forgotten women. And something invisible watches Holmes… from just behind the glass.
