Spade and Philip Marlowe, Lord Peter Wimsey and Hercule Poirot, Matt Scudder
and Easy Rawlins, Spenser and Dalgliesh - they stand among the most popular of
twentieth-century heroes. And now the award-winning mystery novelist Ed Gorman
and novelist-critic Jon L. Breen present a full century of the world's favorite
sleuths in tales by such classic writers as G. K. Chesterton, Ellery Queen,
Dorothy Sayers, and Agatha Christie as well as contemporary giants like Sharyn
McCrumb, Walter Mosley, Ed McBain, Lawrence Block, P. D. James, and Ruth
Rendell. A hefty, handsome volume, Sleuths of the Century also offers serious
suspense from Dashiell Hammett, Patricia Highsmith, Tony Hillerman, Rex Stout,
Donald E. Westlake, and John D. MacDonald. Crossing the decades with a gallery
of sleuths impeccably styled for every generation, this collection provides
exciting, literate tales of detection and danger that will keep the reader on
tenterhooks well into the next century.
Ann Patchett, on reading:
Reading is a private
act, private even from the person who wrote the book.
Once the novel is out
there, the author is beside the point.
The reader and the book have their own
relationship now,
and should be left alone to work things out for themselves.
-
Ann Patchett.

and the
