A not entirely successful collection. I think a lot of these are almost too short to fit in a mystery, a detection and any kind of resolution. There is a wide range of authors, most of which I'd not previously heard of. Linking them by the fact that the story or title contains a reference to a sport is also somewhat tenuous. It was light enough, but I can't say that very many really stood out. The Holmes example and the story focussed on The Boat Race were probably the pick of the bunch. ( )
