The Lord of Misrule

The Lord of Misrule

We are in Victorian London, with its gaslight and fog, not long after the Jack the Ripper Murders. A mysterious cloaked figure wearing a hideous, leprous mask and sleigh-bells is stalking the countryside outside the capital, committing murder wherever it goes, yet leaving no footprints. This is the first Paul Halter novel featuring amateur detective and aesthete Owen Burns, who regards the impossible crime as an art form. The Lord of Misrule was the first book to be published by what was to become Locked Room International. It is being republished so that the cover layout is consistent with the other ten books published since. See: www.lockedroominternational.com Paul Halter is widely regarded as the successor to John Dickson Carr and has published over thirty locked room mysteries in his native France. The Crimson Fog was named one of Publisherâ€™s Weeklyâ€™s Top Mysteries of 2013. Nine of his books have been translated into English. See: mylri.com
