It's About Impossible Crime
Five baffling cases. One brilliant detective. Zero easy answers.
Step into 1928-a world of shadows, secrets, and sinister puzzles-in this dazzling collection of golden-age mysteries with a razor-sharp modern edge. It's About Impossible Crime brings together five twisted tales of locked doors, vanishing killers, and murders that simply could not have happened. At the center of the storm stands Rowan Manory, a private detective with an analytical mind sharper than a switchblade, and Walter Williams, his observant and ever-faithful assistant.
From snowbound alleys of Chicago to cursed Southern mansions, from whispered warnings of demons to rooms that kill in silence, Manory and Williams face crimes that defy logic-and unmask killers hiding behind perfect crimes.
Impossible murder is only the beginning.
Inside this collection:
A woman is stabbed to death in her locked apartment... but the snow outside shows no footprints.
A man is found burned and mutilated-inside a sealed room.
A psychic's deadly prophecy begins to come true, one corpse at a time.
A southern dynasty is shattered by madness, murder, and a cursed inheritance.
And two witnesses hear a murder unfold... just one floor below.
Red herrings abound. Clues are hidden in plain sight. And only the sharpest readers will spot the truth before Rowan does.
