"A kosher treat. A Jewish angle on a genre of literature that so often employs Talmudic logic and the Jewish sensibility that wrong is wrong, and must be stopped."
-Rabbi Joseph Telushkin, author of Jewish Literacy and An Eye for An Eye, a mystery featuring sleuth Daniel Winter

"Intriguing tales of detection as well as meditations on Jewish identity, the stories in this book do what Jewish writing has always done: provide compelling narrative with your philosophy and philosophical challenges with your fiction. Like any Jewish story, the ones in this book can be read on many levels, but there is no argument, Talmudic or otherwise about the quality of this collection: Mystery Midrash is a mitzvah!"
-S.J. (Shira) Rozan, author of Stone Quarry and winner of Shamus and Anthony Awards

"Despite their Jewish themes, these stories have an ecumenical appeal: to Raphael, Mazel Tov!"
-Publishers Weekly Starred Review

"With a first class list of contributors and wonderful stories, Mystery Midrashoffers us a contemporary look at Jewish life, with a mysterious twist."
-Jack Dann, editor of Wandering Stars and More Wandering Stars, anthologies of Jewish fantasy and science fiction, and author of The Silent
