Editor's Notes and Comments:
Product Description:
As Ken Weber says, there are two kinds of people: the ones who love mysteries and the handful who don’t. The throngs who wait eagerly for every new book in the Five Minute Mysteries series will be richly rewarded with this one that takes us from city to country, from a bank to a beach, and all over the world. They’ll encounter detectives, thieves, and murderers, a sub-lieutenant searching for deserters during the Napoleonic Wars, an undercover KGB agent and a centurion in the Roman Empire. In all, there are 40 mysteries-40 chances to fly away from the drudgery of normal life for five minutes of high drama in another time and place. Sign us up!

Okay for short read when short on time, but some of the mysteries are much too predictable.

I own all Five-Minute Mysteries books. The very first couple were pretty good, but the last several were just awful, with unoriginal and mediocre problems. I was about to give up on this series, when I decided to give it one last try -- and this one did not disappoint! The problems are creative and interesting (and fairly difficult -- but definitely still solvable if you read the text carefully), and even the writing seems much crisper this time around! Ken Weber is definitely back in form. I look forward to the subsequent one!
