The rules for law and order create boundaries for civil co-existence. Ideally, the rule of law provides the backdrops for individuals, families, and companies to grow and thrive. Breaking these rules puts civil order at risk. And while murder is the Big Daddy of crimes, codified ordinances across municipal divisions, counties, states, and countries show the nearly endless ways there are to create mayhem.

For your puzzle solving pleasure, Mysteries to Die For presents: Anything but Murder in a two-part anthology. Part two is Heists and Hooligans.

Race Fixing, Intellectual Property Theft, Framing, Arson, Art Theft, Contract Arson, Body Snatching, Menacing, Burglary, Cyberbullying, Fraud.

Eleven stories of devious and insidious ways to create mayhem without killing anyone. Read the stories. Solve the mysteries. Beat the detective to the solutions.
