Thanks to Caroline Crampton and production assistant Leandra for including my essay “The Short Mystery” from How to Write a Mystery: A Handbook from Mystery Writers of America as part of the new episode of the podcast Shedunnit. The episode focuses on short mystery fiction, and in particular, it explores two stories: “Traitors Hands” by Agatha Christie (first published in 1925; the original inspiration for the Witness for the Prosecution play and films) and “A Jury of Her Peers” (1917) by Susan Glaspell.
