Book Overview

A secluded country house promises relaxation, but when a shocking crime erupts during a gathering of guests, fear spreads like wildfire. What was meant to be an innocent weekend descends into suspicion, secrecy, and mounting danger. Between strained relationships and hidden motives, no one can be trusted. Every locked door conceals more than fears, and each hallway becomes a passage toward menace. Trapped together in isolation, the guests must confront not only the murderer in their midst but also their own disguises and lies. Before dawn breaks, friendships are shattered, loyalties tested, and survival itself hangs in the balance.

About Margery Allingham

Margery Allingham, born in 1904 to Emily and Herbert Allingham, was an esteemed English novelist, author, and editor of Christian Globe and the New London Journal. Considered one of the four "Queens of Crime" from the golden age of detective fiction, Allingham began writing stories and plays at a young age and published her first novel, Blackkerchief Dick, at 19. She later studied drama and speech training at Regent Street Polytechnic in London. Allingham is best known for her character Albert Campion, a sleuth first introduced in The Crime of Black Dudley. Campion was featured in seventeen subsequent novels, and even more short stories. Allingham continued to write until her death on June 30, 1966.
