I am quite the fan of Ngaio Marsh in general and, although some of the stories on here do strike me as a little weak, the overall quality is as one would expect from a writer of her calibre.
I particularly like the letter "My poor boy" which she wrote in response to a correspondent who claimed to be an aspiring writer. Pure class.
