The 13th Letter

M is for Mesdames, Messieurs, mystery…and murder!

M is the thirteenth letter of the alphabet, and it begins so many wicked words: malice, Machiavelli, mayhem and of course, murder. But it also heads up mischief, melody and madcap mystery. And what could better suit the Mesdames and Messieurs of Mayhem?  After all, thirteen is our lucky number!

Welcome to our sixth anthology, a book of 22 deviously crafted tales based on each author's twisted take on the letter "M" or literally, a thirteenth letter. Most stories are light-hearted to counter our troubled times but a few do shade into the dark.

The Mesdames and Messieurs of Mayhem is a collective of established Canadian crime fiction authors and talented new writers of the genre.
