In the Shadow of Agatha Christie: Classic Crime Fiction by Forgotten Female Writers: 1850-1917 by Leslie S. Klinger

3.0

What I enjoyed most were the bios written about these "forgotten" female crime writers before their short stories. They were so interesting to read! Such fascinating women. I'll admit to not jumping to read these every chance I got - I found many suffered from their age and from that main critique about short stories, in that they ended so abruptly, it took away from the overall enjoyment of them. There were many good ones inside here though!
