Manhattan Mayhem
ByPublisher Description
Take a crime-filled tour of Manhattan with this collection of all-new stories of mystery, murder, and suspense presented by Mary Higgins Clark—with contributions by Lee Child, Jeffery Deaver, and more.
From the streets of Harlem to the winding paths of Central Park to the high-rise towers of Wall Street, Manhattan is brimming with motivation, opportunity, means—and unsolved mysteries. In this new collection of stories, brought together by Mystery Writers of America and edited by bestselling suspense author Mary Higgins Clark, neighborhoods in the borough come to life—or death—with their own cases to be cracked.
In Lee Child's exclusive Jack Reacher story, “The Picture of the Lonely Diner,” the legendary drifter interrupts a curious stand-off in the shadow of the Flatiron Building.
In Jeffery Deaver’s “The Baker of Bleecker Street,” an Italian immigrant becomes ensnared in WWII espionage.
And in “The Five-Dollar Dress,” Mary Higgins Clark unearths the contents of a mysterious hope chest found in an apartment on Union Square.
With additional stories from T. Jefferson Parker, S. J. Rozan, Nancy Pickard, Ben H. Winters, Brendan DuBois, Persia Walker, Jon L. Breen, N. J. Ayres, Angela Zeman, Thomas H. Cook, Judith Kelman, Margaret Maron, Justin Scott, and Julie Hyzy, Manhattan Mayhem is teeming with red herrings, likely suspects, and thoroughly satisfying mysteries.

“3.5 stars.
This was my first read of a short stories collection. I enjoyed being able to read through one story, put the book down, and easily come back to another story.
Pro: Each short story is written by a different author.
Con: Each short story is written by a different author.
I appreciated the variety that each story brought to the table, but some were written better than others.”

“A few good ones in there, especially “Trapped!” But others left me wondering where the mystery was supposed to be, I guess that’s a mystery in itself. I had higher expectations unfortunately, especially from the Mystery Writers of America.”
