Murder On Main Street

Yes, murder is in the heart of those friendly people who live down the block or across the fence that divides you from them.  Dark secrets and darker crimes are hidden behind those white picket fences, curtained kitchen windows, and under those finished basements and rose gardens.  And in MURDER ON MAIN STREET some of our finest mystery writers will make you acutely aware of that fact.

Simon Brett's "How's Your Mother" reveals a strange secret and one of the more peculiar family relationships; Rex Miller, author of the critically acclaimed FRENZY, investigates domestic sabotage in "Dead Standstill"; and Laurence Block masterfully describes a scheme that backfires in "The Dettweiler Solution," as two brothers plot each other's murder.  There are also classic stories from Donald E Westlake, Charlotte Armstrong, Laurence Treat, Stanley Ellin.  

A Murderer is not always recognizable; the deadliest crime can be committed by anyone at anytime.  Could that White-haired grandmother across the street commit murder?  You know the one.  She has her groceries delivered because she can't carry those heavy bags.  She doesn't possess the strength to drag a body into the garden and bury it there.  

Does she?
