The Perfect Murder Case Resumen del editor

He named the night. He named the district. He dared Scotland Yard to stop him. The letters arrive at every newspaper in London, unsigned but for a single borrowed name. Their promise is simple and outrageous: on a specified date, in a specified quarter of the city, a murder will be committed—and it will be perfect. No arrest. No evidence. No possibility of failure.

The police call it a hoax. The public calls it entertainment. And on the appointed night, a wealthy man whom almost nobody mourns is found dead in his own home, precisely as advertised. The room is immaculate. There is nothing to find. A celebrated detective, newly coaxed out of retirement to head a private investigative branch, takes up the case alongside an eccentric friend whose mind runs in unfashionable directions. Together they discover what the official inquiry cannot admit: the killing was never the point. The letters, the deadline, the theatrical flourish—all of it was staged for an audience, and the police have been invited to walk into a trap of someone else's design. Every suspect has an alibi that cannot be broken.

And the answer, when it comes, leads across the sea to a wind-scoured island where the storm is closing in—and the hunter may not be the one doing the hunting. A classic Golden Age puzzle of nerve, vanity, and misdirection: fair, fiendish, and impossible to put down.
