Ten novellas featuring circus-performer-turned-private-eye Mongo—“one of the greatest characters of recent mystery fiction” (Ellery Queen’s Mystery Magazine).
With a genius IQ, a past career as a circus acrobat, and a black belt in karate, criminology professor Dr. Robert Frederickson—better known as “Mongo the Magnificent”—has a decidedly unusual background for a private investigator. He also just so happens to be a dwarf.
Originally published in leading mystery magazines in the 1970s, these ten novellas—each introduced with notes from the author—offer new readers and diehard fans alike a tantalizing taste of the unique blend of hardboiled mystery, science fiction, and explosive action of this acclaimed series.
In the House of Secret Enemies*—which includes* The Drop*,* High Wire*,* Rage*,* Country for Sale*,* Dark Hole on a Silent Planet*,* The Healer*,* Falling Star*,* Book of Shadows*,* Tiger in the Snow*, and* Candala*—is the 9th book in the Mongo Mysteries, but you may enjoy reading the series in any order.*
