Synopsis

Fog and sleet make driving hazardous in the Chicago traffic. When Katie Warren momentarily stops her car on Michigan Boulevard, she hears a shrouded voice say, “I won’t eat grape hair, nor yet glocks.” The image of grape hair is sinister enough to stick in Katie’s mind. Steering through bad weather, she eventually reaches Aunt Mina’s gloomy mansion—and then something terrible happens.

About this title

About the Author:

Originally published in 1933, Death in the Fog is one of the most chilling mysteries ever crafted by Mignon G. Eberhart, a native Nebraskan whose long career culminated in a Grand Masters Edgar award from Mystery Writers of America in 1970.

Review:

"From the first page to the last, this story is pervaded by the atmosphere of horror and suspense that invariably marks the work of Mignon G. Eberhart. A murder, to her, is something more than a mere crime puzzle to be worked out for the entertainment of the reader. It is a tragic event which deeply affects the destinies of those who are in any way involved."—New York Times (New York Times )
