John P. Marquand and Mr. Moto Book

Some of these delightful short stories feature MacLeod's familiar series characters, like Peter Shandy; two feature the unknown (to me) medical genius Carter-Harrison, and some include anonymous narrators who have come in contact with some rather creepy crimes. Most of them are short enough to leave the reader wanting more. As with most short stories, some will appeal more than others, depending on one's reading taste. There's nothing much, though, for the blood and gore set.
