Intriguing Tales of Mystery & Suspense…
In the tradition of the original Strand Magazine (1891-1950), The Strand features a wide array of stories reminiscent of the Golden Age of crime writing, from cozy whodunits to hard-boiled detective stories, suspenseful thrillers to humorous mysteries, set in a variety of places from Victorian England to turn of the century Prague to modern day England, and written by the leading authors of our day, including Michael Connelly, Jeffery Deaver, Ray Bradbury, Alexander McCall Smith, R.L. Stine, John Mortimer, Faye Kellerman, and Matthew Pearl. We have also published unpublished works by Mark Twain, James M. Cain, Dashiell Hammett, Cornel Woolrich, Agatha Christie, and Graham Greene.
The Mystery of the Dead Woman
He was looking for her, driving continuously since 4 hours. His hands were palpitating and his lips were quivering. Where is She? The Night was drawing near. He had to reach the place somehow.
All of this started when Ben met this young girl in a pub and started to like her at first sight. She seemed to show great interest in him. Everyday they met at the same time and place with Ben talking about his family, his friends and how he wanted to marry her. But what never struck Ben was that the girl never spoke about her personal life. Perhaps she was too shy!
All of a sudden she stopped meeting him. He waited and waited but she didn't. He got nervous and decided to search for her. She had told him nothing but about a house on Lancer Street. He drove to the street asking people the way to the house. Clearly he had never heard about the place.
Finally, he reached Lancer Street. But, this place had a queer feeling about it. It was dark and cold. While on the way, he had asked a shopkeeper about the house, who suddenly seemed to be quite nervous.
After much hard work, Ben reached the house. It was an old tattered building with no lights. How could this be possible!
He saw a man lighting a cigarette nearby and asked him about the girl. The man looked at him in a strange manner. He told Ben that a girl lived here 80 years back, but she died mysteriously. She used to visit a pub regularly in Washington street. But one day she never came back.
Ben was shocked. What he heard was not believable!
