A baffling death interrupts a weekend gathering at a stately country estate. The victim, a visiting mystery author, is found dead behind a locked door-with no weapon in sight and no clear suspects. Who could have committed a perfect murder surrounded by friends, admirers, and secrets? Feathers Left Around delivers a classic Golden Age puzzle full of red herrings, closed-circle intrigue, and unexpected revelations.
