Murder at Midnight: A Gripping Locked-Room Mystery
At midnight, a man dies inside a locked room.
The door is bolted. The windows are sealed. The only weapon lies beside the body. And everyone in Thornwood Hall has a reason to want him dead.
When a violent snowstorm traps eight people inside an isolated country house, investigator Rourke expects an uncomfortable reunion filled with old grudges and buried secrets. Then the wealthy and theatrical Elias Thornwood is found dead in a room no one could have entered-or escaped.
At midnight, a man dies inside a locked room.
The door is bolted. The windows are sealed. The only weapon lies beside the body. And everyone in Thornwood Hall has a reason to want him dead.
When a violent snowstorm traps eight people inside an isolated country house, investigator Rourke expects an uncomfortable reunion filled with old grudges and buried secrets. Then the wealthy and theatrical Elias Thornwood is found dead in a room no one could have entered-or escaped.
At first, the evidence points to suicide. But the strange clockwork mechanism beside the body, a missing cartridge, and a trail of carefully concealed clues tell a different story.
Someone inside Thornwood Hall watched Elias prepare the perfect illusion.
Then they turned his performance into an execution.
As the storm cuts off every road and communication line, Rourke begins questioning the people closest to the dead man: a bitter heir, a frightened matriarch, a calculating blackmailer, a fraudulent medium, and an artist still haunted by the death of her closest friend.
It was committed in the name of justice.
Atmospheric, emotionally charged, and packed with fair-play clues, Murder at Midnight is a locked-room mystery featuring an isolated manor, a closed circle of suspects, hidden passages, family secrets, and a final revelation built for readers who love solving the crime alongside the detective.
When everyone has a motive and no one could have entered the room, can Rourke expose the one person who made the impossible possible? What is Murder at Midnight about?
