As the story opens, the sound of a girls voice in a single cry of horror rings through the halls of a dismal old mansion on the Baltimore Pike. The rescuers who break in the door find Malachi Trent's niece staring spellbound at his dead body. Obviously a death by accident Yet Jerningham, the dramatist, sensing the grimmest drama of his career, proves that the accident was murder and would become the prelude to another Murder Yet to Come.

MURDER YET TO COME -- A Welcome Reprint Of A Prizewinner

"Murder Yet To Come" by Isabel Briggs Myers has at least three attributes that make it a 5-star read: A gripping plot; the incorporation, years before the author created the MBTI assessment instrument, of clearly recognizable Jungian-Myers personality types; and the fact that it won first prize in a mystery novel contest beating out a submission by Ellery Queen. It may not have been the first mystery to include love interest as a significant part of the plot, but the combination may well have earned her the prize. Anyone intrigued by the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (r) will enjoy the clear depictions of an ISTJ, an INFP, an INTP amd am ENFP among the main characters. Although written 70+ years ago it can stand up with the best that is published today.The story starts as a mission to rescue a damsel in distress but the duo enlisted to aid in the rescue, a playwright-amateur-detective and an off-duty police type, conclude that an apparent accident was in fact murder and the mystery is off and running.
