The First Mystery Novel MEGAPACK™ presents four classic mysteries by top crime writers. Here are:

The Red Bishop, by Howard Mason … A wild chase through Europe… a castle on the Rhine… some very fancy corpses… a racing columnist who suddenly finds himself a Peer of the Realm… These are the unlikely ingredients that make this book at once hair-raising and light-hearted!

Reclining Figure, by Marco Page … Lucas Edgerton, arbitary and capricious eccentric, brings in Ellis Blaise, a young New York art dealer, to sell some of his art collection for tax purposes. Thefts from the collection, the sensational forgery of a priceless Renoir, and the puzzling murder of Lucas's son force Blaise into a perilous investigation!

The Case of the 16 Beans, by Harry Stephen Keeler … Why did old Balhatchet Barkstone, on dying, leave his nephew 16 beans? And why did Boyce Barkstone, his heir, hold on to the beans? Why did Hu Fong, a Chinese detective, come to the conclusion that a poverty-stricken hermit was murdered for an article of great value, and what might that article be? These are only a few of the seemingly insoluble riddles which Keeler answers in his own inimitable manner!

The Girl Who Had to Die, by By Elisabeth Sanxay Holding … 19-year-old Jocelyn is convinced she's going to be murdered, and accuses John Killian, a young man she met on a cruise ship, of throwing her overboard. But there are a lot of people who seem to hate Jocelyn… and Killian starts to wonder if he'll be the next victim instead!
