MARY'S ESSAYS ABOUT GOLDEN AGE MYSTERIES

In Praise of Golden Age Mysteries at The Cozy Library.

Raffles at Steve Lewis' online Mystery*File (The Crime Fiction Research Journal).

The stories about the gentleman burglar and Bunny, his devoted accomplice, were written by E.W. Hornung around the turn of the last century. Take a trip back in time as Mary retells their criminal history, and how redemption came at the end.
