The Phantom Passage

In its starred review, Publisherâ€™s Weekly says: â€œOnce again Halter crafts a completely logical and plausible explanation for the fantastic.â€ It is 1902 and in Londonâ€™s infamously haunted East End there are rumours of a strange passageway which can swallow up anyone who ventures there at night and make them disappear. Kraken Street can only vanish and reappear, it can also conjure up visions of murders past and predict future ones. Who better to address this astonishing state of affairs than Owen Burns, a dandy aesthete who appreciates murder as a fine art and lends his services to Scotland Yard? This is LRIâ€™s tenth Paul Halter translation. The author, a best-selling novelist in his native France, has written over thirty novels, almost all â€˜locked roomâ€™ or â€˜impossible crime,â€™ and is widely regarded as the successor to John Dickson Carr. He appeared on BBC Radio 4â€™s program â€˜Miles Jupp in a Locked Room,â€™ broadcast on May 21, 2012. An earlier novel â€˜The Crimson Fogâ€™ was named one of Publisherâ€™s Weeklyâ€™s Top Mysteries of 2013. Locked Room International also translates and publishes the works of other international impossible crime authors past and present.
