The Unfinished Crime / The Girl Who Had to Die

Our fifth collection of superb suspense novels from the author of The Blank Wall. Holding creates characters who start with a simple lie and soon find themselves involved in murder. As the critic for the New York Sun put it back in the 1930s “Elisabeth Sanxay Holding is noted for the ingenuity of her plots but in The Unfinished Crime she has created a masterpiece of suspense.” Raymond Chandler was even more succinct when he wrote to a friend “Shes the top suspense writer of them all.”
