A famous locked-room whodunit

Published in 1922, Milne’s mystery novel, The Red House Mystery would be his only foray into the genre. A locked-room whodunit, it tells the story of a group of diverse people who have gathered for a party at the country estate of a young man named Mark Ablett, whose wayward brother Robert shows up in the middle of the festivities and is soon after found dead; shot in the face. Mark has disappeared, and so partygoer Bill Beverly and his friend Tony Gillingham (who has arrived after the hullabaloo) begin to try to solve the mystery of both the murder and the disappearance, together.

The Red House Mystery was a tremendous success, right off the bat. It remained one of Milne’s greatest bestsellers until three years later, when he wrote a story for his five-year-old son, Winnie-the-Pooh.

Alan Alexander Milne (1882-1956) was a noted English writer, primarily as a playwright.
