Golden Age of Detective Fiction

Happy May readers! This month we’re finding Emerald book covers and I am so excited because Emerald is one of my favorite birthstones- so rich and regal.

If you want to participate in the birthstone book cover tag these are the rules:

• Mention the creator (Leslie @ Books Are The New Black ) and link back to her so she can see your post.

• Pick 5+ book covers that match the current month’s Birthstone.
• HAVE FUN!
• Nominate people if you want!

The Books:

• The End of Mr. Garment by Vincent Starrett (1932)
• The Spanish Cape Mystery by Ellery Queen (1935)
• You’re Turn Mr. Moto by John P. Marquand (1935)
• The Applegreen Cat by Frances Crane (1943)
• 13 White Tulips by Frances Crane (1953)
• A Key to Death by Frances Lockridge & Richard Lockridge (1954)
• Cold Poison by Stuart Palmer (1954)
• Murder at the Manor: Country House Mysteries, Edited by Martin Edwards (2016)

Emerald is a popular color in the mystery genre, and I had so much fun looking for books with this color cover this month.
