Synopsis

At the cutting edge of crime fiction, Mystery Weekly Magazine presents original short stories by the world’s best-known and emerging mystery writers.
The stories we feature in our monthly issues span every imaginable subgenre, including cozy, police procedural, noir, whodunit, supernatural, hardboiled, humor, and historical mysteries. Evocative writing and a compelling story are the only certainty.
Get ready to be surprised, challenged, and entertained--whether you enjoy the style of the Golden Age of mystery (e.g., Agatha Christie, Arthur Conan Doyle), the glorious pulp digests of the early twentieth century (e.g., Dashiell Hammett, Raymond Chandler), or contemporary masters of mystery.
In this issue:
“Damaged People” by David Bart: Creed didn’t keep his promise to Leah and now it’s too late. She's dead.“Suite In The Key Of Death” by BV Lawson: When Scott Drayco was hired to investigate a suspicious death, he didn't count on an oddball suspect. Or that he'd wish he'd never taken the case at all.
In “It Was Always Temporary” by Chris Preston, a hitman takes on an assignment to make up for recent missteps. Is his loyalty in the right place?
“The Hook-Up Scam” by Jeff Soloway: The woman was not who she claimed. But neither was he. And neither was his wife. Would any of them get their revenge?
“Short Con” by Brandon Barrows: At last, Eli Farris has the freedom he wanted so badly, but he needs money to sustain it. Working is for marks, but he has a plan—only it includes his sister. Amber doesn't take direction well and the buzzing in Eli's head is getting really bad.
In “Billy The Kid, GED” by Jack Clark, a private-eye test for an ambitious young man leads him down a dark alley.
In “Spanky And Delilah Are In Love” by Roger Johns, a dog park romance and a chance encounter with an aging mobster renew Alex Abraham’s desire to find his long-lost brother.
“Exhibiting Signs Of Death” by Mark Thielman: During a quick stop at a museum gift shop, a retired cop finds a dead body on display. He and the shop clerk must solve the murder.
