A country-house host is found shot in his locked study, and the amateur sleuth Roger Sheringham talks his way to the truth. Anthony Berkeley launched a golden-age favorite with this witty, ingenious debut. Clever clues, sly humor, and a fair-play puzzle. Detection with a twinkle. Gather in the drawing room at Layton Court.
