During the course of the investigation, which includes a disappearance of the elusive Allevaire from a locked and guarded building, his theories keep changing like a kaleidoscope until the final totally unexpected solution.One of the most complex and intricate puzzles in detective fiction, The Double Alibi ranks with The Howling Beast as a stellar example of Noel Vindry's work.Locked Room International translates and publishes the works of international impossible crime authors past and present.
