Death in the Fog
This classic mystery ismore than a mere crime puzzle. . . . It is a tragic event which deeply affects the destinies of those who are in any way involved” (The New York Times).

The road to her aunt’s country house on Lake Michigan is dark and shrouded in fog. But it’s a road Katie Warren knows well, having taken up residence with her Aunt Mina after losing her job during the stock market crash. But as she enters the gates to the gloomy mansion, a figure appears in the murky darkness—and Katie drives right into it, resulting in the death of her ailing aunt’s longtime companion, Charlotte Weinberg.

The police are called in to investigate and when it becomes clear there was no love lost between Katie and Charlotte, Katie falls under suspicion. But Katie has her own suspicions when she discovers the death in the fog was no accident at all. Now sharing her aunt’s house with a list of suspects, Katie must rely on her wits to find a murderer—before the murderer gets her first.

About the Author

Mignon G. Eberhart (1899–1996) wrote dozens of mystery novels over nearly sixty years. Born in Lincoln, Nebraska, she began writing in high school, swapping English essays with her fellow students in exchange for math homework. She attended Nebraska Wesleyan University, and in the 1920s began writing fiction in her spare time, publishing her first novel, The Patient in Room 18, in 1929. With the follow-up, While the Patient Slept (1931), she won a $5,000 Scotland Yard Prize, and by the end of the 1930s she was one of the most popular female mystery writers on the planet.

Before Agatha Christie ever published a Miss Marple novel, Eberhart wrote romantic crime fiction with female leads. Eight of her books, including While the Patient Slept and Hasty Wedding (1938), were adapted for film. Elected a Mystery Writers of America Grand Master in 1971, Eberhart continued publishing roughly a book a year until the 1980s. Her final novel, Three Days for Emeralds, was published in 1988.
