Feast on this delectable collection of "whodunits" from some of the mystery world' s most diabolical chefs. Whet your appetite with Sara Paretsky's "Skin Deep," in which fan-favorite Chicago private investigator, V.I. "Vic" Warshawski, takes on a chi-chi salon after one of its clients turns up dead. For your next course, try Wendy Hornsby's award-winning "Nine Sons," a country schoolteacher's recollection of a gifted student whose farm life was more troubled than it seemed. Then treat yourself to Elizabeth Peters' " The Runaway," which tells of two sisters who flee from home— and head straight into the arms of terror.

        This anthology of stories by popular mystery writers Paretsky, Muller, McCrumb, Paul, Hornsby, Hess, Estleman, Peters and Pickard presents a broad offering. There is so much variety here in both story and narration, you may need to like channel hopping to enjoy it. The narrative styles suit the stories for the most part; standouts are Henry Polic reading the Hess and Estleman, and Diane Baker reading Peters and Muller. They are best able to reflect the text and capture the characters. The production values are excellent. There is little to unify the selections but taken in short sessions, this variety should please fans of short mystery fiction. R.F.W. (c)AudioFile, Portland, Maine
