    Light reading, but worth it

    This is a good book for when you know that you are not going to be able to read for extended periods, or have a lot of interuptions. The stories are quick and easy to read, but I usually knew before the end "who did it". Good airplane read as you can pick up and put down without losing the train of story.

    3 stars

    First story was almost Hitchkocian because tective gets the idea of who did it, and then it ends.
    The western was a classic locked room mystery.
    Have read better over all.
