The Mysterious Bookshop
Mysterious Bookshop Crime Clubs
Founded in the early days of the shop, the Mysterious Bookshop Crime Clubs are our way of connecting readers and collectors with the very best mystery and crime fiction being published today. With multiple clubs to choose from, there’s something here for every kind of mystery reader.
Each Crime Club delivers one signed first-edition hardcover per month (American Mystery Classics available in hardcover or paperback), carefully selected by our booksellers. We never charge extra for signed copies, and all books are offered at jacket price (British Imports excepted).
How the Crime Clubs Work
- One signed book shipped monthly per club
- Selections announced in our monthly newsletter
- Autographs included at no extra cost
