Published in 1922 and re-released from time to time, The Red House Mystery is a classic British locked room puzzler in the style of Christie or Sayers combined with the pleasing wit and gentle humor of the Pooh Bear stories (although it is not a book for children). The detective, an amateur named Antony Gillingham, literally stumbles onto the scene of a crime that has only just been committed at the British estate owned by wealthy Mark Ablett. Mark's ne'er-do-well brother, Robert, turned up the day before the murder, much to the surprise of all those who previously believed that Mark was an only child! Luckily for Antony, his best pal Bill (one of those goofy but endearing Bertie Wooster types so popular in 1920's fiction) happens to be a houseguest at the Red House, and this gives Antony a good excuse for hanging around the manor, asking lots of impertinent questions of all the guests and housemaids, and snooping and sifting through clues.
