Wildside Press is proud to present the fourth of Fletcher Floraā€™s series featuring police detective Lt. Joseph Marcus, as part of our ongoing effort to make Floraā€™s collected work available again to the public. We plan to release the entire series.
In this entry, Lt. Marcus and Sgt. Fuller investigate another puzzling murder -- in this case, the death of Phil Stein, slain while mowing his lawn. ...

While Flora had a long career writing much crime, mystery, and detective fiction, Marcus seems to be his only attempt to create a series character. Marcus, as a character, is marked by his dogged rationality, as he attempts to solve various ā€œinexplicableā€ murders and crimes, much to the annoyance of his compatriot Bobo Fuller. We have been able to identify nine stories featuring the characterā€”although as always we ask fans and aficionados to inform us of any we have missed. Note: while many online sources list the Fletcher Flora story ā€œThe Capsuleā€ (from Mike Shayne Mystery Magazine, December 1964) as being part of the Marcus series, it does not actually feature the character. ā€œThe Capsuleā€ can be read in Wildside Pressā€™s The Second Fletcher Flora Mystery MEGAPACKĀ®.

We hope you enjoy this classic detective story.
