A great review of Through the Walls
“Fans of John Dickson Carr will be in Heaven”
Publisher’s weekly starred review of Noel Vindry’s last impossible crime novel:
https://www.publishersweekly.com/ASINB09M83SG8L
A fair review of Vindry’s Through the Walls
All in all, a fair and balanced review from Mysteries Ahoy: “has enough points of interest that it would be a very solid second read.”
Through the Walls by Noël Vindry, translated by John Pugmire
Through the Walls now in Kindle
Self-explanatory
Noel Vindry’s Through the Walls now available
A Travers les murailles, Noel Vindry’s last novel to feature M. Allou, the master resolver of locked room mysteries, is now available.
Rated almost as highly as The Howling Beast by 1000 Chambres Closes, it features several impossible crimes in and outside an eerie manor, whose inhabitants are convinced that the aggressors are capable of walking through walls.
The great reviews keep coming
Another great review, this one from the highly selective Ah! Sweet Mystery blog:
“… great fun, and a clever mystery… Locked Room International’s latest triumph… ” I blush.

Death Among the Undead “close to perfect”
The Moonlight Detective cannot contain his enthusiasm:
“… purely as a traditional, plot-driven mystery novel, ‘Death Among the Undead’ can stand with the best of its kind, past and present
… close to perfect as a hybrid-mystery novel… My best and favorite read of 2021!”

On a more prosaic note, there will be a short unavailability of the tpd while I publish a small update.
