What is Ten Great Mysteries about?

picked this book up at the thrift store more as a gift for my mother than for my own perusal, but I decided that I should dip my toe into the genre mainly because the first story is The Maltese Falcon, and I love the movie. It read almost exactly like the movie.The next few stories were trifles about Perry Mason and by Agatha Christie that were more interested in plotting and the twists therein than they were in characterization.The Case of the Late Pig offered a somewhat welcome diversion and No Motive by du Maurier was a fine story.The Dancing Detective by William Irish was an interesting story about a serial killer and was an anomaly for this tome.The collection ends with The Franchise Affair by Josephine Trey which was a thoroughly interesting novel without all of the tricks employed by most of the other authors. The author created a world and characters that were easy for a reader to immerse themselves in.
