Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: #1 New York Times–Bestselling Author: Three witty whodunits from the Golden Age of mystery, featuring the crime-solving nurse nicknamed Miss Pinkerton . . . Miss Pinkerton A supposed suicide has the homicide squad suspicious, despite its locked-room location—so they ask nurse Hilda Adams to keep watch at the mansion while tending to the dead man’s bedridden aunt . . . The Haunted Lady Elderly widow Eliza Fairbanks claims someone’s trying to scare her to death. First a cloud of bats is unleashed in her locked bedroom, but when that doesn’t do the trick a pack of rats arrives next. Special duty nurse Hilda Adams, a.k.a. “Miss Pinkerton,” believes Eliza may be frail, but she’s not batty. She is very, very rich, though, and among her assorted shady and oddball relatives one clearly has an eye on the Fairbanks fortune. . . . Episode of the Wandering Knife Hilda takes on the case of a young woman who broke off her engagement for no apparent reason—and tried to kill her mother while sleepwalking—in this novella accompanied by two bonus stories. Praise for Mary Roberts Rinehart, winner of a Mystery Writers of America Special Award: “The first author to write a humorous mystery with a female protagonist . . . A staple of crime fiction from then to now.” —Carolyn Hart “Fans of Agatha Christie will be pleased.” ?Booklist “[Rinehart’s] literary distinction lies in the combination of love, humor and murder that she wove into her tales . . . She helped the mystery story grow up.” ?The New York Times

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Three tales from a mystery master whose “literary distinction lies in the combination of love, humor and murder that she wove into her tales” (The New York Times). The Episode of the Wandering Knife: What’s a mother to do? When her daughter-in-law is slashed to death, the first thing is to hide the hunting knife that’s sure to implicate her innocent son. But it doesn’t stay hidden for long. It’s just turned up in a second victim, only to vanish once again. Whatever the cunning motive is for the ghastly crimes, the game of hide-and-seek with a deadly weapon is just beginning. The Man Who Hid His Breakfast: A woman’s been found strangled in her bed. The only other person in the house is her daughter, Emma. Given Emma’s motive for wanting to escape the clutches of her domineering mother, the case seems open and shut. Except Inspector Tom Brent insists Emma couldn’t possibly have done it. His career depends on proving it. And it all starts with a very peculiar breakfast. The Secret: Hilda Adams, the Homicide Bureau’s undercover “Miss Pinkerton,” is enlisted to investigate the odd behavior of Tony Rowland. The woman has suddenly broken off her engagement to a man she loves, crashed a car, and now keeps her elderly mother locked in her room. Does the Rowland family have reason to fear the neurotic woman? Or is Tony herself the one who’s afraid? If so, of what?
