In this book the author of those successful mystery stories, 'The Clue,' "A Chain of Evidence,' "Curved Blades' and others, takes the student into the laboratory where such novels are made and elucidates the processes clearly. But plot is by no means reduced to a formula. Instead, the resource and invention of the writer is stimulated to the utmost. "It is a book that will be read many times by the ambitious would-be writer." -The Springfield Union "I cannot imagine any one leaving it unfinished, once having begun to read it. Yet, when you see it announced as 'a complete practical study of the form, with examples from the best mystery writers,' you not only smile, but feel sure that the author smiled, too. The table of contents is delicious. Chapter IV, for instance, is about ghost stories, and it is divided into four parts: a working classification, the ghost story, famous ghost stories, the humorous ghost story. Against attempting the last, by the way, the novice is warned....Miss Wells makes some surprising statements. 'A true lover of detective fiction,' she writes, 'never reads detailed newspaper accounts of crime....Immensely interesting.'" -The Nation Carolyn Wells was a prolific author of mystery novels. In this detailed book, she teaches the history, types, principles, devices, plots, and structures of mystery writings. This is virtually a miniature course in creative writing of the mystery story.
