The Window of Judas

The golden age of detective fiction left many star names - A. Christie, G. K. Chesterton, G. Mitchell, and others. In this bright constellation, John Dickson Carr (1906–1977) holds the most honored place. In Carr's works, there is no room... for wild chases and shootouts, and the circle of suspects is kept to a minimum. Murder in a locked room is the author's favorite plot. Carr ensnares the reader in webs of deceptive moves, false clues, and subtle hints, inviting them to participate in solving an intricate puzzle, unraveling the threads of 'impossible' crimes.

The novel 'The Window of Judas', one of Carr's most famous works about 'impossible' crimes, continues the series of investigations by Henry Merrivale. Jim Answel, a successful young man, is accused of murder. In a room with solid shutters, locked from the inside with a bolt, there was no one else besides him and the victim of the crime. All the evidence is against him. Answel realizes that he has become a pawn in someone else's devilish game...
