Sit back, dear reader, and enjoy this original large print mystery anthology. But don't get too comfortable; you'll need to be on your toes to notice the clues in each of these intriguing tales. As senior citizen and prolific author Isaac Asimov writes in his Introduction, here the mysteries are solved not by the brashness of muscles and youth, but by sharp wits, experience, and intellect. In this collection, you'll find many of your favourite detectives, including the inimitable Sherlock Holmes, beloved Miss Marple, and jovial Father Brown. You'll also meet other able senior sleuths from all walks of life, in stories by such famed authors as Charlotte MacLeod, John Dickson Carr, and Hughe Pentecost.
The stories are filled with suspense, spiced with humour, and punctuated with clever twists. Some you will solve, others will perplex you, all will surely entertain you!
