Meet Skip Langdon: Two Mystery Short Stories: Always Othello and The End Of The Earth

A MINI-MYSTERY ANTHOLOGY: TWO SKIP LANGDON SHORT STORIES
Back when the first Skip Langdon mystery won the Edgar Allan Poe Award for Best Novel, Skip was a six-foot post-deb cop with authority issues. She was supposed to be a doctor or a lawyer, but say the word â€œsupposed toâ€ and she was outta there. But now she IS the authority, the most famous cop in New Orleans and one of the most engaging female sleuths in the mystery genre. If you havenâ€™t met her, nowâ€™s the time, in this mini-anthology composed of two short stories, both mysteries, both starring Skip.

In ALWAYS OTHELLO, clever detective work leads to the killer of an acquaintance, someone Skip feels kind of personal about. You know how every neighborhood has its characters, the people you see every day but donâ€™t really know? Well, Franny Futura was one in Skipâ€™s French Quarter neighborhoodâ€”a Tarot reader who dressed in a ladylike silver suit with a spaceship hat. Was it true she was really a man? Where did her money come from? And why were none of her fellow fortune-tellers surprised at her death? The trail leads right to The question, the ONLY question anyone ever asks a Tarot reader.

THE END OF THE EARTH just might be the only mystery short story ever written thatâ€™s set in Antarctica! Detective Skip Langdon of the New Orleans Police Department and her long-time beau Steve Steinman find themselves sailing the Southern Ocean after winning a trip to the least populous continent, but not staying in fancy hotels because thereâ€™s no place to build any! The whole vacationâ€™s a cruise, providing the perfect background for a cozy country house mysteryâ€”except the country homeâ€™s the ship. Agatha Christie and Ellery Queen fans will enjoy this unusual take on their favorite writers' favorite trick, as well as fans of police procedurals and strong women sleuths.
