Seeing is Believing [Paperback] Carter Dickson

Description

Seeing is believing (what you think you saw). Everyone present in the room saw the murder, but no one knew who committed it. But in the end that was all for the best, because nothing less than a completely baffling puzzle such as this would have torn Sir Henry Merrivale away from the job at hand: dictating the complete, unexpurgated edition of his acidulous memoirs. After all, as H. M. himself would be the first to say, a run-of-the-mill murder is all right for a run-of-the-mill detective, but a crime of subtlety and daring requires a superior mind to deal with it, such as (you guessed it) Sir Henry Merrivale’s.
