The Red House Mystery is a 'locked room' whodunnit by A. A. Milne, published in 1922. It was Milne’s only mystery novel. The setting is an English country house, where Mark Ablett has been entertaining a house party consisting of a widow and her marriageable daughter, a retired major, a wilful actress, and Bill Beverley, a young man about town. Mark’s long-lost brother Robert, the black sheep of the family, arrives from Australia and shortly thereafter is found dead, shot through the head. Mark Ablett has disappeared, so Tony Gillingham, a stranger who has just arrived to call on his friend Bill, decides to investigate. Gillingham plays Sherlock Holmes to his younger counterpart’s Doctor Watson; they progress almost playfully through the novel while the clues mount up and the theories abound. (wikipedia.org)

It has so much heart in it - more than the first book, I’d say. The humor is a little more complex and therefore delightful to grown ups than in #1. (Alyssa Bohon) ...
