Synopsis

The Detective has been a mainstay of fiction writing ever since we can remember.   
Their deductive powers, their intuition and fleet-footed grasp of every detail can often turn the unlikeliest situation, or bunch of red herrings, into a breakthrough to capture even the most ingenious and dastardly of criminals. 
In this series our classic authors explore not only various themes, such as Occult Detectives, Female Detectives, Curious Crimes and a whole host more, but also bring a range and depth to the whole culture of criminality as we send in the Long Arm of the Law to bring justice on behalf of the society it serves. 
In this volume our detectives are all American and bring new methods and characters from across the Atlantic into how to solve crimes and bring criminals to justice.  These are their stories.
