Core blimey, mate! It's British Mystery Multipacks Volume 11, a crackling cornucopia of classic cozy mysteries from across the pond: The Murders in the Rue Morgue by Edgar Allan Poe, and its sequel The Mystery of Marie Roget Guest American author Edgar Allan Poe invented the detective genre with these twin tales featuring Parisian criminologist C. Auguste Dupin. In The Murders in the Rue Morgue the French supersleuth investigates the savage murder of a mother and daughter. In the sequel, The Mystery of Marie Roget, Dupin is on the hunt of a killer in a case based on the true story of Mary Rogers, a saleswoman at a cigar store in Manhattan whose body was found floating in the Hudson River in 1841.
