What is Murder, Mystery and Malone (2002) about?

MALONE MEETS MURDER Craig Rice (1908-1957), the pseudonym of Georgiana Craig Rice, was the author of an extraordinary series of screwball mysteries about John J. Malone, a bibulous, blonde-fancying lawyer, who claims never to have lost a case. In the twelve stories first collected in this book, Malone investigates a killing in an undertakers’ parade, a psychiatrist’s patient who dreams of murder, an unknown man killed in a rented sailor’s suit, and a terrified memory expert. As a special bonus, two of the stories feature Rice’s lesser known sleuth, Melville Fairr, a little grey man but a formidable detective. Rice’s biographer, Jeffrey A. Marks, has chosen and written new prefaces to each story. ** From Publishers Weekly Though several story collections came out after her death in 1957, popular mystery writer (and 1946 Time cover girl) Craig Rice (b. 1908) still had many uncollected short pieces, 12 of which are now anthologized in Murder, Mystery and Malone. Edited by Rice's biographer, Jeffrey A. Marks, these tongue-in-cheek screwball mysteries feature John J. Malone, an improbably successful lawyer with an eye for the (blonde) ladies.
