A woman is found beaten, her home ransacked. Outside, the fresh snow holds only one set of footprints—leading straight to the scene and back again.

They belong to a young woman known for sleepwalking. She has no memory of the crime… but with no other tracks, who else could it have been?

The case seems clear. The evidence is certain. And yet… something is wrong.

This impossible crime is the work of John Dickson Carr, a master of the locked-room mystery and one of the greatest minds of Golden Age detective fiction. An American who lived in England for years, Carr crafted intricate puzzles that defied logic—until his brilliant detectives unravelled them.
