Описание:
We all have choices in life. Over the years I have been able to draw from the negative and the positive experiences in my life and create a path I feel privileged to walk. Everyone with whom I have interacted has caused a shift inside me. While it is true some interactions have been negative, they have been counteracted by emotionally open and generous friends and family. My study of Yoga has played an important role in my life. I have learned to travel through the dark side of life's experiences and find the light at the end of the tunnel.
Over My Shoulder enabled me to face the black places in my soul. I understand I am not alone in the painful challenges life presents, decisions we make that later we may regret. Loss of any kind is never easy to bear. The perceived loss of emotional love from a parent, family member or friend or the tragic death of a sibling, Mother or Father, the effects of war, all are traumatic. If Over My Shoulder touches just one person, encourages them to take a deep breath, find all that is strong and positive within them, my Collection will not have been in vain.

Murder by Jury: "If there is any place one would think himself safe, it would be in a jury room, locked up with fellow members of a jury, considering a verdict. Yet that, strangely enough, is the place Miss Sanborn chose for her victim. Naturally it takes an unusual bit of scheming on her part to make the murder plausible, and to set the stage so that the killer goes undetected long enough to fill the volume. Yet she manages it without false leads, or last-minute introductions of new characters. The big-jawed lady on the jury, who had almost dominated the scene until that moment, is actually--and cleverly--made away with by another member of the 12, and right under their eyes. Another female member of the same jury finally follows the course of logic which solves the mystery, and in so doing uncovers the real secret of the case upon whose settlement they were debating when murder entered their locked room. It's well told, and is interesting in the portrayal of the characters of the story." (Birmingham, Alabama, News, April 3, 1932)
Murder on the Aphrodite: "A houseboat is a pretty fair place on which to stage a murder mystery, and Ruth Burr Sanborn uses such a locale to good advantage. When Mrs. Christine Van Wycke is killed while a psychologist is conducting an experiment to show that no persons notice the same things during a moment of stress, Bill Galleon finds himself wondering if Jane Bridge, or Jane Barron as he once knew her, has anything to do with the murder. Before the solution is reached, Bill has some bad moments about his suspicions, but naturally the romance ends happily and the murder is solved in an ingenious manner." (Minneapolis, Minnesota, Star, October 19, 1935)

Описание:
Stately, white-columned Shephard House has been the splendid Hudson River Valley seat of the aristocratic, old-money Shephard family for generations. Much to the outrage of Marian Shephard, chatelaine of Shephard House, it is to the proud old family mansion that Marian's brother, scholarly gentleman bachelor Hamilton "Ham" Shephard brings his new bride, scandalous New York revue star Jocelyn "Joss" King. Once ensconced at Shephard House, Joss goes about drastically changing the old regime there, even to the extent of flagrantly redecorating the mansion's renowned, perfectly paneled Georgian drawing room in art deco style. Clearly the brazenly modern Joss has got to go.
And go Joss does, at a weekend house party when the mansion is full of guests, all of whom promptly become suspects in Joss's murder when the beautiful showgirl is discovered fatally bludgeoned in her elegant black Lelong dress. Lovely post-debutante narrator and Shephard family ward Nancy Sherwin is left to wonder whodunit--and who will be next to get done in Perhaps Nancy's handsome, insouciant neighbor, Osgood "Oz" Brown, or that earnest, bespectacled young policeman, Inspector Cooper, will discover the truth before the bodies really begin to pile up at Shephard House.
When forty-eight-year-old Yonkers elementary schoolteacher Laverne Rice published her sole detective novel in 1938, it received a rave review from the New York Times Book Review, which proclaimed Well Dressed for Murder "a mystery story that will make far more experienced craftsmen look to their laurels."
This edition includes a bibliographic introduction by detective fiction historian Curtis Evans.

Описание:
"Imagine nine tourists cooped up on a small, light-draft boat on the Nile, hot and uncomfortable by day, cold by night, suddenly thrown into panic by the knowledge that one of them is a murderer; that even if he desired to, the desperate brute could not leave the boat because of the barrenness of the land about them. So they must associate with the criminal until they could get back to more-populated country.
"The first murder was that of a beautiful girl as she stood before the hideous statue of Anubis, King of the Dead, in the Sudan, with its rock-hewn tombs of ancient Egypt. Her death was due to the bite of a deadly asp, which had been placed in her jacket pocket. Then came the murder of a native deck steward, who seemingly knew too much. And still there was no actual knowledge of who had been the criminal. Each passenger suspected his or her neighbor, even the captain coming under suspicion. And it remained for a young girl, a girl with a newspaper training, to eventually solve the hideous mystery. Mrs.] McKinley has made her story one that is terribly realistic, with much of the enchantment and mystery of Africa, flavoring the tense excitement." (Boston Globe, 1933)
F. Burks McKinley was the pseudonym of Mary Frances Burks (1907-1970). Born in Dyer County, Tennessee, Burks attended high school in Nashville and graduated from Vanderbilt University in 1929, receiving a prestigious Founder's Medal, and on the same day she wed academic scholar Silas Bent McKinley. In 1933, she dedicated Death Sails the Nile, which drew on experiences from her honeymoon, to Professor McKinley, although the couple divorced in 1935. Burks, who reclaimed her family name, never remarried nor published another detective novel, despite the wide praise Death Sails the Nile received.

Описание:
Murder in the poisoned bosom of a genteel, if alarmingly dysfunctional, family in the English countryside.
Dennyford is a "peaceful little place . . . where the most exciting thing that could happen would be the lowering of somebody's golf handicap. . . ." Or so the locals used to think. But young Lucy Rivers is in love with handsome Mark Armour, the local police's chief suspect in a most dreadful murder case - the initial slaying (that of Mark's domineering older sister, Bertha), and another which follows it, appear to have been done by means of arsenic. The true killer is finally unmasked, with credit going to the wily Hermann Glide, working in parallel with Inspector Collier of Scotland Yard.
Death in the Cup was originally published in 1932. This new edition features an introduction by crime fiction historian Curtis Evans.
