Berkeley contributed to collaborative and collected anthologies throughout his career and has continued to appear posthumously in Golden Age reprint collections. The earliest entries here are Detection Club projects: Ask a Policeman (1933) and Six Against the Yard (1937), both experiments where multiple crime writers tackled the same premise from different angles. The Scoop and Behind the Screen (1983) reprints two serialised radio mystery stories written collectively by Detection Club members including Berkeley, Agatha Christie, and Dorothy L. Sayers.
More recent anthologies, Bodies from the Library (2019), Murder Takes a Holiday (2021), and Murder Under the Sun (2024), are modern collections of rediscovered Golden Age short fiction. These volumes have brought previously uncollected Berkeley stories back into print for contemporary audiences and are part of a broader revival of interest in Golden Age crime writing.
