This newest release from Crippen-Landru sounds
intriguing...
"Since his first story appeared in 1956, Clark Howard has
become one of mystery's most honored writer. He has won the
Edgar Award for Best Short Story from the Mystery Writers of
America, and recently set a record with his fifth Ellery
Queen Readers Award. Challenge the Widow-Maker and Other
Stories of People in Peril is about ordinary people who have
not always done well with what life has dealt them - ex-cons,
hard luck boxers, aging surfers, Puerto Rican dirt farmers,
lonely old men living in tenements. When crises enter their
lives, they have to find the strength, the humanity, to meet
the challenges."
Is anybody familiar with Clark Howard and is the collection
worth picking up?
