And we also have an original solve-it-yourself mystery from the fiendish imaginations of Hal Charles (the writing team of Hal Blythe and Charlie Sweet). To balance things out, we also have modern classics from Elizabeth Elwood (thanks to Acquiring Editor Barb Goffman) and Nina Kiriki Hoffman, and a rare reprint from British master E.C. Tubb.
