The Mystery of the Yellow Room by Gaston Leroux is one of the earliest and most famous locked-room mystery novels, first published in 1907.
The story follows Joseph Rouletabille, a young journalist and amateur detective, as he investigates a baffling crime. Mathilde Stangerson, the daughter of a famous scientist, is found brutally attacked inside a locked room - the Yellow Room - which was sealed from the inside, with no apparent way for the assailant to escape.
Rouletabille uses his keen logic, intuition, and deductive skills to solve the seemingly impossible crime. As he untangles the clues, suspects, and red herrings, he ultimately exposes the shocking truth behind the attack.
The novel is celebrated for its clever plot, atmospheric tension, and innovative take on the classic locked-room mystery.
