“The puzzles are clever, and Zeltserman plays fair with readers. Stout devotees will be delighted with this loving homage.” Publishers Weekly (starred review)

The award-winning Julius Katz mysteries have delighted readers since first appearing in Ellery Queen Mystery Magazine in 2009. These stories introduced readers to Boston’s most brilliant, eccentric, and possibly laziest detective, as well as the most unusual sidekick in the annals of detective fiction: a tiny marvel of whizbang computer technology named Archie who has the heart and soul of a hard-boiled P.I. This second volume of Julius Katz mystery stories starts where the first volume THE JULIUS KATZ COLLECTION ends, reprinting the next eight stories in this most unusual series.
