	Locked room mystery - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A locked room mystery is a sub-genre of detective fiction wherein a murder or other crime is apparently committed under impossible circumstances: no one could have entered or left the scene of the crime, and the death involved could not have been a suicide.
		Even though the mystery or detective genre wasn't established until the 19th and 20th centuries, the apocryphal Biblical story of Bel and the Dragon has some similarities to locked room mysteries.
		Another notable early example, Le Mystère de la Chambre Jaune (The Mystery of the Yellow Room) was written in 1908 by French journalist and author, Gaston Leroux.

	Golden Age Mysteries - 'Impossible' Mystery Novels that Equal the best of Carr

		True classics like "King Solomon's Mines" never lose their freshness, and in fact I reread it with great enjoyment (see my web site entry: http://www.geocities.com/~betapisce...mes/haggard.htm) a few years ago while going through a doldrum of interesting mysteries to be occupied with.

	JOHN DICKSON CARR -- CARTER DICKSON
		JDC's favorite mystery, The Mystery of the Yellow Room, is (at least in the translation I've read) a dog turd, especially with its 16-year-old detective Rouletabille and a bunch of ponderously stupid gendarmes.
		[If any mystery really needs a floorplan diagram*, this one does and suffers from its lack of one (90-foot-thick walls, indeed -- the description of the castle makes no sense!), and the macho posturings of the French and German detectives is rather silly].
		Of course it is, in a JDC novel -- he does this frequently in the course of a narrative when he says 'this was perfectly true', but this is one of only a couple of experiments where he actually used footnotes as clues (see Reader Is Warned).
