'One of the joys of the collection is how many are delightfully funny ... Note that many of these stories turn on simple theft, of diamonds or candlesticks or a lottery ticket; they hark back to simpler days before the modern thriller began to provide endless serial killers and ax murderers for our edification ... Anyone who cares about the best mystery writing of the past century and beyond would be lucky to receive this thick volume during the holidays' Washington Post.
