A follow up to the author's 1974 collection 'Tales of Black Widowers'; twelve more mystery stories (nine reprinted from various periodicals and three hitherto unprinted), featuring his fictional club of mystery solvers, the Black Widowers (which is based on the New York City literary dining club Trap Door Spiders to which Asimov belonged)..
