From Library Journal
A lost Sherlock Holmes manuscript leads Ellery Queen to his own investigation of the Jack the Ripper murders in "A Study in Terror," the longest contribution to this anthology of eight horror stories revolving around the world's most notorious unsolved murders. From Harlan Ellison's surreal "The Prowler in the City at the Edge of the World" to Ramsey Campbell's macabre "Jack's Little Friend," this selection spans more than 70 years of "Ripper" tales. Since 1988 is the 100th anniversary of the murders, and two PBS-TV specials on the Ripper aired this fall, libraries may expect some interest. JC
