Pretty good collection...

This is a collection of about 20 mysteries, all runners-up for an Edgar Award. Some of them were yawners, but there were 3 or 4 really memorable stories in here. Not all of them were murder mysteries, and some of them weren't mysteries at all, which was slightly disappointing. My favorite was the last chapter - the foiled bank robbery. I give this collection 3.5 stars. I would probably buy another collection like this, from the Edgar committee.
