Since we've mentioned it in the newsletter, it can now be revealed: After a lengthy absence, our Mongolian protagonist Inspector Dorj returns in a short story, Locked In Death, which will appear in The Mammoth Book of Perfect Crimes & Impossible Mysteries, edited by Mike Ashley.

The collection offers 29 stories and although we do not yet have a firm date of publication, it's expected to appear from Constable Robinson towards the end of the year in the UK, followed by a US edition from Carrol & Graf. Contributors include Ed Hoch, JA Konrath, William Le Queux, Bernard Knight, C. Daly King (of Obelists Fly High fame), Peter Tremayne, Bill Pronzini, Dick Lupoff, and Gillian Linscott.

Inspector Dorj made his three previous appearances in Ellery Queen Mystery Magazine.

Eric Mayer Byzantine Blog Probably the only vaguely interesting thing about me is that with my wife, Mary Reed, I co-author the John the Eunuch mystery series set in sixth century Constantinople. But that doesn't stop me from dwelling here on the boring minutiae of the rest of my life, present and past, along with the occasional word about writing.
