The Plague Court Murders: A Sir Henry Merrivale Mystery by John Dickson Carr
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

1930. Dean Halliwell invited Ken Blake and D.I. Masters to his house, Plague Court, at night to debunk supernatural activities. But not long after they arrive, and finding various people in attendance, Roger Darworth, spiritualist, who aimed to exorcise the evil at Plague Court is found dead in a sealed chamber, stabbed multiple times. Masters with D.S. Bert McDonnell investigate but find that they need the help of Sir Henry Merrivale.
An entertaining historical locked room mystery.
