  Marcia Muller is, as Sue Grafton pointed out, the creator of the modern female private eye story, and Sharon McCone is one of the finest and most sensitive of all current sleuths. Sharon came upon the scene in 1977 with Edwin of the Iron Shoes, the first of fifteen novels and fifteen short stories filled with cluing and caring. The McCone Files gathers all of Sharon’s short cases into a single volume covering her entire career as staff investigator at All Souls Legal Cooperative in San Francisco.  
  From the death of a clown in Diablo Valley to the disappearance of a young socialite on the Golden Gate Bridge, from the murder of a teenage gang leader in San Francisco to the drowning of an aged Japanese herb-gatherer, and from streets filled with juvenile runaways to the quietness of a mausoleum, Sharon investigates not only who committed the crimes but also what they say about the world toward the end of the twentieth century.

  The Man That Corrupted Hadleyburg is a short story by Mark Twain and was published in 1899. It tells the story of the destruction of a small town (known as Hadleyburg), which is known far and wide as an honest and moral community. The people of the town enjoy the reputation of being honest. They isolated themselves and their babies from outsiders; when their children are still babies, keeping them sheltered from any kind of temptation.However, a mysterious stranger - who has a grudge against the town during the past year for an unnamed, unrequited offence – decides to get his revenge by corrupting the town and proves that its nineteen most well-respected members are immoral and dishonest. He gives a sack - which contains $40,000 gold - to the bank cashier and leaves him a note that explains how the bank cashier should spend it.This version of the book is translated by Farideh Eizadi to Persian (Farsi) and narrated by Bahram Sarvarinejad. The Persian version of The Man That Corrupted Hadleyburg’s audiobook is published by Maktub worldwide.
