The golden age of the detective left many star names — A. Christie, G. K. Chesterton, G. Leroux, and others. In this bright constellation, John Dickson Carr (1906–1977) occupies the most honorable place. In Carr's novels, there is no room...
for wild chases and gunfights, and the circle of suspects is kept to a minimum. Carr lures the reader into a web of false clues, deceptive moves, and subtle hints, inviting them to participate in solving an intricate puzzle by unraveling the threads of 'impossible crimes'.
In the novel 'Murder in the Atlantic', included in this collection, the unfortunate events that Sir Henry Merrivale must unravel take place aboard a transatlantic liner sailing from New York to 'some British port'. The atmosphere of this novel was significantly influenced by a similar journey that the author himself undertook in the early days of World War II. The edition also includes the novels 'Seeing is Believing' and 'And Now — Murder!', continuing the series about the eccentric and charming Henry Merrivale.
