<DIV><DIV><b>Fifteen spine-tingling stories of murder, mayhem, and the macabre from one of America&rsquo;s finest crime authors</b></div><BR>Dorothy Salisbury Davis has become known as one of America&rsquo;s finest crime writers through such novels as&#160;<i>A Gentle Murderer</i>,&#160;<i>The Clay Hand</i>, and&#160;<i>Death of an Old Sinner</i>. Her short stories have also won acclaim since they first started to appear in 1952. Now, here are fifteen of them collected in one volume.<DIV><BR>&ldquo;Lost Generation&rdquo; is classic Dorothy Salisbury Davis: a chilling story of small-town policemen who cross the line between good and evil. In &ldquo;A Matter of Public Notice,&rdquo; a midwestern town is set on edge by three strangulations of women who live alone. &ldquo;Spring Fever&rdquo; introduces readers to a farmer&rsquo;s wife who finds romance to be a fatal attraction. &ldquo;By the Scruff of the Soul&rdquo; presents a case of sibling rivalry turned deadly. And in &ldquo;Mrs. Norris Observes,&rdquo; the inimitable crime-solving housekeeper happens upon an explosive scene at the New York Public Library. These and ten other stories are sometimes comic, sometimes terrifying, but always rewarding.</div><DIV></div></div>
