«L'enigma dei tre omini» is the mystery novel by John Franklin Bardin, published by Polillo in paperback (233 pages, in Italian).
A young man with a red hibiscus in his hair visits a psychiatrist: some «omini» pay him for absurd acts, such as whistling at Carnegie Hall. The doctor believes they are fantasies until he encounters one of them. The tale mixes investigation and nightmare, leaving open whether the characters lose their reason or a rational explanation exists.
It belongs to the «I bassotti» collection by Polillo (no. 13). Italian translation by Tracy Lord; original title: «The Deadly Percheron».
For those who enjoy classic crime fiction, psychological mysteries, and the dreamlike atmospheres of the forties.
