Sleep No More: Six Murderous Tales

The cover lured me into reading a book that belongs to two genres I'd normally never read: a short story collection, and a crime one at that... 
But I'm glad it did. I have been meaning to open up my reading a bit recently. I liked the classic twists in each little story and the image of an era that it left imprinted on my brain (both this era of crime fiction writing and the era the stories were set in in general). The writing was excellent - flowing well and reflecting astute observations about what we're like as humans.
