Some Things Fierce and Fatal edited by JOAN KAHN 14 Mystery

"What always beats them in the end," said Dr. Matthews, "is how to dispose of the body."
Slade agreed quickly although he didn't believe the old man. He had worked out a foolproof plan for getting rid of Spalding, the earnest young lawyer who knew too much for his own good. The body itself was no problem at all - or was it?
Slade is just one of many macabre characters in this collection of fourteen suspense stores, some fact and some fiction. A band of men plot to unearth Abraham Lincoln's body... a pack of ghost dogs take revenge on their sadistic killer... seven members of one family die of arsenic poisoning.... Here are chilling stories to keep readers fascinated and horrified. And watchful.
