This time, we have an original mystery from Jack Roney (thanks to Acquiring Editor Michael Bracken) and modern mysteries from Merrilee Robson (thanks to Acquiring Editor Barb Goffman) and James Holding. Our mystery novel is from Golden Age author John Esteven. And, of course, Hal Charles returns with another solve-it-yourself puzzler.

On the science fiction and fantasy side, we have a terrific tale from Anna Tambour, plus classics by Nelson S. Bond, Edmond Hamilton, Roger Dee, and Frank Belknap Long. Good stuff.
