Description

Mystery fiction is a species all its own, and writing it can be a special type of puzzle. But with this book, a writer's conference of sorts, readers will learn how to make their stories more taut, more real, more immediate, and more fraught with tension. Because this book's contributors, all members of the Mystery Writers of America, have walked by night, they know mystery story form, and they'll help readers learn it. They know who moves in the shadows, and they'll introduce readers. They know how to tighten the screws of suspense, and they'll hand readers a screwdriver.
