In 1954, Potts won the Best First Novel Edgar Award for Go, Lovely Rose. In 1957 she produced her first crime story for Ellery Queen's Mystery Magazine called "The Withered Heart." She followed this with six more superb short stories before the end of her writing career in 1990. Stark House has collected the entire published output of Jean Potts' short fiction, including her mainstream beginnings and her latter-day crime fiction treasures. Twenty insightful gems from the mistress of psychological mystery. Jean Potts.…
