      Brought together for the first time, this collection of nineteen short stories, from best-selling author Allan Martin, asks, "Is murder always wrong?". Well-known for the darkly dry humour of his Inspector Angus Blue series of crime thrillers set across Scotland, Allan Martin brings his razor-sharp eye for detail to the short story genre, and Tales Murderous and Mysterious will have you gripped from the first knock on the door, to the last dead body. Andrew James Greig says: "Allan's macabre short stories bring Edgar Allan Poe to mind." Olga Wojtas calls it: "a kist of darkly sparkling gems"
