Murder Every Monday: Death...after Death

 


Kate at Cross Examining Crime hosts a fun mystery cover game on Instagram called Murder Every Monday. Our assignment, should we choose to accept it, is to display book covers and titles from books you own that meet prompts which she posts well in advance (see link). 

 
Today's theme is crime fiction published posthumously. I could have sworn I owned Sleeping Murder by Agatha Christie (I can even see the cover in my head). Apparently, that's just wishful thinking, because I cannot find it anywhere--not on the shelves, not in my scanned cover files, not on my huge spreadsheet. Oh, well. I do have a few others to share with you.

Striding Folly by Dorothy L. Sayers
Two-Way Murder by E. C. R. Lorac
Lord Peter by Dorothy L. Sayers

The Singing Sands by Josephine Tey
My Lady's Garter ~Jacques Futrelle*
A Vacation to Kill For ~Eunice Mays Boyd

*which sounds like a romance, but the synopsis says it is is a theft mystery
