An anthology of historical mystery tales spans the centuries from ancient Rome to Victorian England and features twenty-one stories by authors such as Anne Perry, Steven Saylor, Edward Marston, Carola Dunn, and Laurie King.
I ordered this book so I could read the Julian Kestrel short story (set in Regency England) by Kate Ross, who died too young after writing three Kestrel novels and this one story. Crime Through Time is an anthology of historical mystery short stories, some related to novel series and others standalones. (Laurie L. King's "Mrs. Hudson's Case," which I read on Kindle and reviewed earlier this year, is also included.)I enjoyed all the stories in this collection, including some from periods I don't usually go for -- ancient Egypt, for example. Books of short detective stories are great to have stashed about one's person to while away waiting time in medical offices and elsewhere. I'm glad I also bought Crime Through Time II and III, as well as a similar collection, Past Poisons: An Ellis Peters Memorial Anthology. Recommended. ( )
