855 Authors. 2,739 Titles. The Detective Book Club, in nearly 60 years of existence, created an enormous repository of detective fiction. This reference volume lists the more than 900 3-in-1 mystery omnibuses published by Walter J. Black, Inc, and its successors, between 1942 and 2000.

There were well-known prolific and successful writers who were reprinted dozens of times, and there were hundreds of lesser-known writers who appeared only once. Arrangement is chronological, to the degree possible. There are complete author and title indexes. For each volume, the three novels included are given with their author, and name and year of the American edition being reprinted. 1989. 220408929 Hillerman, Tony. A Thief Of Time. 1988 Harper. Nabb, Magdalen. The Marshal And The Madwoman . 1988 Scribner. Wood, Ted. When The Killing Starts. 1989 Scribner.
