At the cutting edge of crime fiction, Mystery Weekly Magazine presents original short stories by the world's best-known and emerging mystery writers.
The stories we feature in our monthly issues span every imaginable subgenre, including cozy, police procedural, noir, whodunit, supernatural, hardboiled, humor, and historical mysteries. Evocative writing and a compelling story are the only certainty.
Get ready to be surprised, challenged, and entertained--whether you enjoy the style of the Golden Age of mystery (e.g., Agatha Christie, Arthur Conan Doyle), the glorious pulp digests of the early twentieth century (e.g., Dashiell Hammett, Raymond Chandler), or contemporary masters of mystery.
In our cover story, "Stranger In Paradise" by James Nolan, a naïve tourist in the French Quarter, seeking to broaden her horizons, drops by to meet a friend-of-a-friend, an antique dealer in cemetery artifacts. Hours later, as she regains consciousness naked and bound in his bed, she realizes she stumbled into a woeful misadventure.
In "You Can't Go Alone" by Andrew Welsh-Huggins a homicide detective sets out to avenge the death of his drug addict son, but must reconsider his quest when he receives a warning along the way.
It's 1939 Manhattan. Weegee, the city's most infamous crime photographer, needs a gimmick to excite readers bored by yet another photo of a bullet-riddled gangster. What he comes up with is sheer genius-but the results are not what he expects in Bruce W. Most's "The Dead Man In The Pearl Gray Hat."
"Three Hogg's Tales And One Hairy Ending" by Jeff Dosser is a modern-crime retelling of The Three Little Pigs. How far will a brother go to protect his siblings?
In "The Mayfly" by David Bart a dying Morgan Ayers has one last chance to protect his family. He utilizes a wheelchair, some WD-40 and a socket wrench.
A timely piece: an El Chapo lookalike finds himself on the wrong side of the law in T.L. Huchu's "El Chappie: The World's Second Greatest Criminal". But, what did he do that was so unlawful?
In "Jumpers For Jesus" by Emily Devenport a go-getter reporter goes after a go-getter religious zealot. Who is a better shepherd to the faithful-a charlatan or a daredevil?
