Description
Originally published by The Strand in 2015, this summer issue remains one of our proudest “from-the-archives” releases: it features an unpublished F. Scott Fitzgerald short story—a late, irresistible piece touching on Hollywood idols, lingering fevers, and light-hearted romance, told with the assurance of a writer who could still build a story with real craft and momentum.
This issue also includes an interview with Lisa Gardner, plus new fiction by Ian Rankin, Charles Todd, and T. Jefferson Parker, and a Sherlock Holmes adventure by Larry Millett.
In this issue:
-
“Amazonia” (T. Jefferson Parker) — a thrilling tale about a shady travel agency that makes you think twice before booking an exotic vacation.
-
“The Heroism of Lieutenant Wells” (Charles Todd) — World War I, betrayal, and the cost of doing the right thing.
-
“Meet and Greet” (Ian Rankin) — twists, turns, and sharp surprises.
-
“The Opera Thief” (Larry Millett) — Holmes on the case, with plenty to delight devoted Sherlockians.
-
Unpublished F. Scott Fitzgerald — glamour with shadows underneath, a fevered turn, and a note of romance—Fitzgerald in an unexpected key.
Lisa Gardner also spoke with us about her latest novels, the state of suspense writing, and how she keeps her plots both chilling and precise.

Note: Publishing the unpublished Fitzgerald story in 2015 was a major milestone for us. Special thanks to the Princeton Library, whose finding aids made it possible to locate the manuscript and arrange to have copies sent to our office—proof that the hunt for lost literature is easier today, but no less thrilling.
