For each volume, a series editor reads pieces from hundreds of periodicals, then selects between fifty and a hundred outstanding works. That selection is pared down to twenty or so very best pieces by a guest editor who is widely recognized as a leading writer in his or her field. This unique system has helped make the Best American series the most respected -- and most popular -- of its kind.\u003cbr\u003e This seventh installment of the premier mystery anthology boasts pulse-quickening stories from all reaches of the genre, selected by the world-renowned mystery writer Michael Connelly. His choices include a Prohibition-era tale of a scorned lover's revenge, a Sherlock Holmesinspired mystery solved by an actor playing the famous detective onstage, stories of a woman's near-fatal search for self-discovery, a bar owner's gutsy attempt to outwit the mob, and a showdown between double-crossing detectives, and a tale of murder by psychology. This year's edition features mystery favorites as well as talented up-and-comers, for a diverse colleciton sure to thrill all readers. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eJames Crumley Pete Dexter Brendan DuBois Elmore Leonard Walter Mosley Joyce Carol Oates\u003c\/body\u003e","brand":"Mariner Books","offers":[{"title":"Best American Mystery Stories (2003) | Michael Connelly | Paperback | 9780618329656 | Used: Very Good | Mystery 1749096","offer_id":50901293629698,"sku":"1749096","price":21.04,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0609\/3327\/5906\/files\/71avyJZgHKL.jpg?v=1793196681","url":"https:\/\/boswellsbooks.com\/products\/best-american-mystery-stories-2003","provider":"Boswell's Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
