The Classic Collection of John Dickson Carr: Henri Bencolin Mysteries. Illustrated: It Walks by Night, The Lost Gallows, Castle Skull brings together three early masterpieces by the undisputed master of the locked-room mystery and one of the most inventive writers of the Golden Age of detective fiction. At the center of these dark and atmospheric tales stands Henri Bencolin, the brilliant and enigmatic French detective whose methods are as unconventional as the crimes he investigates. From the shadowed streets of Paris to eerie castles and isolated estates, Bencolin confronts murders that appear supernatural, impossible, or utterly inexplicable. In It Walks by Night, a brutal killing in a sealed room defies logic and launches a chilling investigation. The Lost Gallows blends political intrigue with sudden violence, leading to a puzzle filled with hidden motives and deceptive appearances. In Castle Skull, a mysterious death inside a sinister, fortress-like mansion creates one of Carr’s most haunting and theatrical cases. Rich in Gothic atmosphere, clever misdirection, and fiendishly constructed plots, these novels showcase Carr’s signature combination of suspense, horror-tinged settings, and brilliant deduction. This illustrated edition enhances the experience with artwork that captures the mood and mystery of each story. A must-have volume for fans of classic detective fiction and impossible crimes. Contents: It Walks By Night The Lost Gallows Castle Skull
