About the book

The Locked Room Mysteries brings together The Four Just Men by Edgar Wallace, The Mystery of the Yellow Room by Gaston Leroux and The Hollow Man by John Dickson Carr. Threats that seem impossible to carry out, inaccessible crime scenes and carefully concealed explanations test the powers of investigators and readers alike. The three novels approach mystery through different combinations of suspense, atmosphere and logical ingenuity. Introduced by Martin Edwards, the collection explores the enduring appeal of the apparently impossible crime, in which discovering how something happened can be as compelling as identifying who was responsible.
