Milne, A. A. (Alan Alexander), 1882-19562010
Book
Abstract: "The next moment Antony saw it. A man was lying on the floor at the far end of the room, his back towards them. A man? Or the body of a man?"Far from the gentle slopes of the Hundred Acre Wood lies The Red House, the setting for A. A. Milne's only detective story, where secret passages, uninvited guests, a sinister valet and a puzzling murder lay the foundations for a classic crime caper. When the police prove baffled, it is up to a guest at a local inn to appoint himself "Sherlock Holmes" and, together with his friend and loyal "Watson", delve deeper into the mysteries of the dead man.
