<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>Eleven classic whodunits starring master sleuths such as Sherlock Holmes, Hercule Poirot, and Father Brown. </b> <p/>A superstar lineup of detectives--including Sherlock Holmes, C. Auguste Dupin, and Hercule Poirot--headlines this elegant leather-bound edition of classic mystery stories. Short stories such as Edgar Allan Poe's "The Murders in the Rue Morgue" and G. K. Chesterton's "The Blue Cross" are ideal for a cozy evening by the fire, while novels like Agatha Christie's <i>The Murder on the Links</i> and Jules Verne's <i>An Antarctic Mystery</i> will keep you engrossed for days.
