IMBA's 100 Favorite Mysteries of 20th Century - Page 2

The Independent Mystery Booksellers has apparently been defunct since 2006, but prior to that they selected the top 100 mysteries of the 20th century. A large portion of these sit on my bookshelves just waiting to be read. I'm familiar with most of the authors but not necessarily the titles they chose. Good things to hunt for at the used bookstores.
