✦ Synopsis
Alfred Hitchcock Mystery Magazine, in its more than thirty-five years of existence, has primarily focused on mystery and suspense short stories involving warm-blooded citizens with their feet flat on the ground. Occasionally, during its first quarter century, the magazine took a flyer into the Unseen (or Mostly Unseen) World. In the last ten years or so, the magazine’s editorial staff have ventured even more frequently into those realms in which the crimes encountered rarely turn up in the job descriptions of the average policeman or private eye. The results, we hope, fit our mission of providing the reader with entertaining mystery fiction.
