Description

"They say that writers are really divided into two types; which exactly corresponds to cut-throats and poisoners. The cut-throats are those who, realising that the murder story must cut short the life, decide also to cut the story short. It is their pride as artists to deal in daggers; and startle the unfortunate reader with the stab of the short story." - G. K. Chesterton

Here lie 11 daggers that go straight to the heart of the matter; will the villain get away with it, or will the detective at hand, be they a young journalist, a lady-sleuth or simply a nearby policeman, unveil them?

The stories in order are:

From Behind the Barrier - J. S. Fletcher
Miss Hinch - H. S. Harrison
Pigs' Feet - F. A. Kummar
Abel Crew - Mrs. Henry Wood
The Artificial Mole - J. D. Beresford
The Case of the White Footprints - R. Austin Freeman
The Dollar Chasers - Earl Derr Biggers
The Middle Dozen - Nellie Tom-Gallon & Calder Wilson
The Sealed House - Hulbert Footner
The Secret of Headlam Height - Ernest Bramah
Who killed Castelvetri? - Gilbert Frankau
