In search of a Mystery
My favorite books are mysteries. However, decent mysteries are difficult to find.
I enjoy Agatha Christie, but I can only take so much of the old lady. I also enjoy Edgar Allan Poe and Ray Bradbury. I also am a fan of short stories because I can pick it up and read a story while commuting to work. I used to read Mary Higgins Clark, but they started becoming too predicable. They are summer reads, which I'm not in the mood for right now. Also, I'm not into the soft core porn mysteries. I have Anais Nin for my erotica fix.
Ideally, I would like to find some books that are reminiscent of Alfred Hitchcock Presents or old radio shows like the Whistler, Nero Wolf, and Suspense.
I'm a bit picky I suppose.
Anyway, has anyone read a good mystery lately?
