Summary: Fine old fashioned short stories
Comment: These short stories were written during WWII, and obviously the shadow of war lies in the background, with men leaving for Europe or South Pacific, and women working for their country, or just waiting for the men to come back. And with a bit of crime and murder everywhere. It's a medley of classic criminal detection, with the hard-boiled policeman (but with a heart like that!) and crime+love stories full of tenderness. A bit old-fashioned, of course, but so agreable to read and enjoy : the heroine always needs a man to help her, and generally falls in love with him, but why not ? Of course, the end of the short story "alibi for isabel" is'nt what we expected, but that's fine : heroines by Mary R. Rinehart do'nt kill their husbands cold-blooded. Nice stories to enjoy.
