Mystery Weekly Magazine

In our feature story, "Fader's Crates" by Caroline Misner, the search for a young girl continues in a small rural town; meanwhile, a mysterious stranger hires a mentally challenged man to build him crates. Jim Doherty's precise account of a suspicious vehicle investigation with "Cap Device" provides a dilemma: he was a brother policeman, so Dan Sullivan was inclined to give him a break, to extend some professional courtesy. Head to "Black Bear Country" with Rosemary McCracken's caper about an elderly couple that has rented a cabin in the Canadian wilderness for their vacation, and the ravenous blackflies prove to be the least of their worries. "Rock On The Rocks" is a weaving tale of murder by Lance Dean: the Head of Security and a homicide detective investigate the disappearance of a road crew member from a concert in a Reno casino. "No Quarters" by Leslie Elman is an intriguing mystery set late at night in a Laundromat, where an unusual encounter occurs. Peter DiChellis brings us "Locked Tight", a locked-room mystery: a forgetful sheriff leads an eccentric group of characters trying to solve three puzzling murders.
