Summary
(From the publisher):
Today's best American and British mystery authors are featured in this outstanding collection of original historical mysteries. The stories in Crime Through Time span thousands of years - from Steven Saylor's ancient Rome to Anne Perry's Victorian England - and feature an amazing variety of detectives - from Peter Lovesey's Prince Albert to Maan Meyers's Charles Dickens to Laurie King's Mrs. Hudson, housekeeper to Sherlock Holmes and a star sleuth in her own right.
These twenty-one historical whodunits were written specifically for this volume and are appearing for the first time in print. (from the publisher)
