Sinossi

This issue brights quite a selection of mysteries and crime stories—8, in fact. (Though two are doing double-duty as science fiction.) Michael Bracken has selected a story by our acquiring editor Cynthia Ward for this issue—“Roadsong,” which (along with Eando Binder’s tale) is also science fiction. Barb Goffman has picked a winner by John Shepphird this issue. Plus we have classics by Stephen Wasylyk, James Holding, Dorothy B. Hughes, and Nicholas Carter. And what issue would be complete without a solve-it-yourself mystery by Hal Charles?
 
On the science fiction side, Cynthia Ward has picked “Memorabilia,” a post holocaust story, by Holly Wade Matter, plus we have a classic fantasy by Lester del Rey (from Unknown), and a classic science fiction story by Jerry Sohl (from Infinity). Here’s the complete lineup:

    Nineteen year old William Martin is on death row in the Ohio State Penitentiary for a double homicide. Musically talented, but socially inept, he remains supported by two strong women, his mother, Susan, and his childhood nanny, Sally Miller, who are convinced there has been a miscarriage of justice. Their trust in William leads to complications which threaten not only his chance of an appeal but also their own freedom. This is a story of the strong bond between mother and son, whose relationship contrasts starkly with that of William and his proud and arrogant father. Jealous of his son's musical talent, he is equally jealous of his wife's success. It is against this background that William's world crumbles when he is charged and convicted of murder.

    Cuba — where it all began. 
    Getting captured and shot by Cuban intelligence in Nicaragua isn’t slowing John Carpenter down. The black operative and his partner Marcela have been in more close calls than they can count, but this time is different. This time they are striking back. They have finally met their handler, Mike Morrandon, who has emerged from the shadows and they’re ready to settle the score. 
    Mike Morrandon is on the run from his own employers at the CIA after uncovering insidious information from a questionable source, suggesting a Cuban mole in the CIA. But no one will listen, or they’re covering it up. Either way, Mike isn’t sure he can trust his own agents. But he needs them to go after Antonio Romero: the mysterious man who seems to be behind manipulations in American politics. A man with friends in high places. His only mistake? He made an enemy of John Carpenter. 
    John is after the root cause of it all, and only one place has the answers: Cuba. But is the island willing to give up its secrets? With old enemies and new allies, everything has led up to this moment. 
    It ends now. 
    Third book in the John Carpenter Trilogy!
