In a house locked from within, the owner is found stabbed to death and three guests lie poisoned. The first clues are in the victims' pockets: a watch, quicklime, matches, and an alarm clock mechanism. Sir Henry Merrivale must clarify how the crime was committed and what relation these objects have to the murder.

Recommended for fans of classic detective fiction and locked-room mysteries.
