Georgette Heyer writes mysteries, too - in fact those are the only examples of her work that I have read. I'm sure I've got half a dozen somewhere on my mystery shelves, together with Ngaio Marsh, Margery Allingham, Patricia Wentworth, etc. The Agatha Christie books live elsewhere, but only because they're a different size. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
