Résumé
The Mystery at Stowe (1928) marks one of the earliest and most notable entries in Vernon Loder's career as a master of Golden Age detective fiction. Set in the elegant and secretive world of an English country house, this novel offers everything fans of classic mysteries love: a suspicious death, a closed circle of suspects, and a detective determined to untangle the truth.
When a weekend gathering at the grand estate of Stowe ends in a sudden death, what first appears to be suicide quickly raises doubts.
The victim, found dead under mysterious circumstances, had both secrets and enemies. With the arrival of the unflappable Inspector Devenish, the veneer of upper-class decorum begins to crack, revealing jealousies, lies, and motives hidden beneath polite conversation. Vernon Loder crafts the mystery with precision and wit, balancing suspense with clever dialogue and red herrings that keep readers turning the pages.
The country house setting is brought vividly to life, serving as both a picturesque backdrop and a pressure-cooker environment where secrets fester and danger lurks in the most civilized of places. As the investigation unfolds, it becomes clear that nearly everyone at Stowe has something to hide. Only by unraveling each thread of deception can Devenish arrive at the truth-and the final twist is one even seasoned mystery fans won't see coming. A quintessential whodunit from the Golden Age, The Mystery at Stowe is a smart, stylish, and thoroughly engaging read-perfect for lovers of classic detective stories.
