Armchair Fiction presents large, deluxe paperback editions of classic mystery-crime novels. Veteran crime writer Robert Kelston serves up a murder mystery in a graveyard with “Murder’s End.” You had a cemetery full of corpses—but one of them was a fresh murder victim! As the owner of a stately cemetery, Charlie King was a man who made dying a pleasure—his Greenlawn Cemetery had all the bells and whistles. So if you were going to cash in your chips, Greenlawn was the swankiest place you could end up six feet under. But when Charlie himself turned up missing and presumed murdered, finding his killer became a convoluted mystery with a plethora of unseemly twists and turns right on through the cemetery grounds. You see, everyone was in love with Charlie’s millions! Beatrice, his faithless wife…Matt Price, her paramour…stormy little Sue, whose hate belonged to daddy…even young Tommy Bolt, to whom Charlie was worth much more dead than alive—if only Tommy could stay out of the cross-hairs of the police! The murder trail led Tommy from the arms of one woman into the heart of another. And it taught him, much to his peril, that sometimes the dead have no friends!
