Hodgkiss and the Shack in the Woods

Hodgkiss and the Wrong Rifle

Hodgkiss and the Open Door

 

In this, the eleventh volume of the Hodgkiss Mysteries, Edgar Hodgkiss is confronted with three examples of that most baffling of all forensic challenges ... a body found in a locked room with no way in or out.

 

How can the killer leave the scene of the crime without a trace? These three cases demonstrate three different ways in which such a crime can be committed and they demonstrate, too, Hodgkiss' genius for unravelling the most complicated crimes in his usual aggressive and uncompromising manner.

 

These three cases, The Shack in the Woods, The Wrong Rifle, and The Open Door, provide three different solutions for what looks at first sight to be three insoluble problems.
