The Wintringham Mystery

Rediscovered after nearly 95 years, The Wintringham Mystery by Anthony Berkeley offers a captivating winter country house mystery, filled with classic elements of the Golden Age. The story follows Stephen Munro, a former army officer turned footman at Wintringham Hall, where an eccentric weekend house-party takes a darker turn when a guest named Cicely mysteriously vanishes. With the reluctant Lady Susan avoiding police involvement, Stephen and the resourceful Pauline Mainwaring embark on their own investigation, soon uncovering a suspicious death that deepens the intrigue. Originally serialized in 1926 and featuring a puzzle so complex that even Agatha Christie couldn't solve it, this classic tale promises to challenge modern readers as well.
