Night Forms by Francis M. Nevins

Perfect Crime Books presents another fine offering with this anthology of twenty-eight Francis M. Nevins short stories that first appeared in publications such as Alfred Hitchcock Mystery Magazine, Mike Shayne Mystery Magazine, and Ellery Queen Mystery Magazine. A two time Edgar winner, Mr. Nevins has been delivering top-notch tales for more than forty years featuring series characters like lawyer Loren Mensing, cop Gene Holt, and, my personal favorite, criminal Milo Turner.

A big highlight of this omnibus is Mr. Nevins' introduction in which he writes about his friendship with Frederic Dannay, one-half of the famous Ellery Queen team. A fan of mystery and suspense tales shouldn't miss this one.
