Customer Reviews

Stretches the point, but the characters are likeable . . .

and the mysteries are intriguing. If you like your mystery novellas with a touch of the occult, give this book a try. The plots are sufficiently dissimilar that you don't get tired reading five different stories . . . and the length of the novella allows for much more "meat" than the short story. Wilhelm, as always, is a skillful and intelligent writer.
