๐ What makes a crime seem truly impossible, and why can’t mystery readers get enough of these types of stories? Join me as we unlock the irresistible appeal of locked room mysteries that have delighted readers for over 150 years.
๐ง Iโll break down the difference between a locked room mystery and a closed circle โ and why readers get genuinely cranky when authors mix them up.ย
๐๏ธ Then Iโllย give you some classic locked room stories starting with Edgar Allan Poe, running through the Golden Age, and finishing up with some modern takes on the genre in both books and television.ย
