About this title

Synopsis

At the cutting edge of crime fiction, Mystery Weekly Magazine presents original short stories by the world’s best-known and emerging mystery writers.
The stories we feature in our monthly issues span every imaginable subgenre, including cozy, police procedural, noir, whodunit, supernatural, hardboiled, humor, and historical mysteries. Evocative writing and a compelling story are the only certainty.
Get ready to be surprised, challenged, and entertained--whether you enjoy the style of the Golden Age of mystery (e.g., Agatha Christie, Arthur Conan Doyle), the glorious pulp digests of the early twentieth century (e.g., Dashiell Hammett, Raymond Chandler), or contemporary masters of mystery.
Our cover story, “One And Done” by Arthur Carey, follows a birdwatcher as he witnesses a murder causing the killer to set out to eliminate him. But the hunter picks the wrong prey.
We have two very different locked room adventures this month. In Carlos Orsi’s “The Adventure Of The Dead Frog”, a controversial specimen is taken from a locked vault and every scientist is a suspect. And in “Arthur Kill” by Jeff Somers a retired cop has his doubts about his ex-wife's death, why she locked herself in his office ... and his stepson.
Tim Major’s “The Pale Shadow And The Conjuror” introduces us to sixteen-year-old Ephraim as he begins his pickpocketing apprenticeship, mentored by a notorious criminal, the Pale Shadow. Can they get away with the most ingenious art theft ever?
“The International (Marketing) Incident” by Ricky Sprague touches on a topical subject when an uptight assistant in the international marketing department of a major Hollywood movie studio has to overcome his natural insecurities when his roommate is accused of murder.
