This volume assembles in book form for the first time the eleven stories featuring the armchair criminologist Professor Ulysses Price Middlebie. These crime stories, originally published between 1962 and 1975, involve murders, attempted murders, thefts and arson and are all written in the tradition of the “impossible crime” mystery genre. Several of the stories in this collection have never been reprinted since their initial appearances in magazines and newspapers such as Alfred Hitchcock’s Mystery Magazine and The Los Angeles Times. |
