SINOPSE
#1 New York Times-Bestselling Author: Three witty whodunits from the Golden Age of mystery, featuring the crime-solving nurse nicknamed Miss Pinkerton . . .
Miss Pinkerton
A supposed suicide has the homicide squad suspicious, despite its locked-room location—so they ask nurse Hilda Adams to keep watch at the mansion while tending to the dead man’s bedridden aunt . . .
The Haunted Lady
Elderly widow Eliza Fairbanks claims someone’s trying to scare her to death. First a cloud of bats is unleashed in her locked bedroom, but when that doesn’t do the trick a pack of rats arrives next. Special duty nurse Hilda Adams, a.k.a. "Miss Pinkerton," believes Eliza may be frail, but she’s not batty. She is very, very rich, though, and among her assorted shady and oddball relatives one clearly has an eye on the Fairbanks fortune. . . .
Episode of the Wandering Knife
Hilda takes on the case of a young woman who broke off her engagement for no apparent reason—and tried to kill her mother while sleepwalking—in this novella accompanied by two bonus stories.
Praise for Mary Roberts Rinehart, winner of a Mystery Writers of America Special Award:
"The first author to write a humorous mystery with a female protagonist . . . A staple of crime fiction from then to now." —Carolyn Hart
"Fans of Agatha Christie will be pleased." ?Booklist
"[Rinehart’s] literary distinction lies in the combination of love, humor and murder that she wove into her tales . . . She helped the mystery story grow up." ?The New York Times

SOBRE O AUTOR
Mary Roberts Rinehart
Mary Roberts Rinehart nasceu em Pittsburgh, nos Estados Unidos da América, a 12 de agosto de 1876. Formada em enfermagem, cujos conhecimentos técnicos veio a aplicar com mestria nas tramas que concebeu, foi após uma queda de valores na Bolsa americana que Rinehart, vendo-se sem poupanças, começa a escrever as primeiras histórias. O seu livro de estreia, O Mistério da Escada de Caracol (1908), tornou-se um enorme êxito e é ainda hoje considerado um título pioneiro do romance policial. Responsável pelo desfecho «o culpado é o mordomo», que ficaria para sempre associado ao romance de mistério, a autora inovou e amplificou o género, destacando-se ainda com a obra O Homem da Cama n.º 10 (1909), ou a peça O Morcego, que serviria de inspiração à personagem de Batman. Morre em Nova Iorque, a 22 de setembro de 1958.
