A murder takes place in a London studio on a foggy night, with the victim found stabbed to death in an impossible position. The police investigation is complicated by a mysterious figure seen asking for unlikely directions before the crime. The case is taken up by John Christmas, who uses his skills and resourcefulness to uncover an ingenious solution that surprises even Inspector Hembrow of Scotland Yard. First published in 1929, this novel has had a lasting impact on the genre, influencing later works by notable authors.
