In Paul Halter’s The Fourth Door, the impossible becomes reality. A haunted room. An unbroken seal. A murder victim whose very identity is an enigma. And then, a second death in a house surrounded by untrodden snow. Both crimes defy reason—but master detective Dr. Alan Twist reveals that even the most baffling mysteries have rational explanations.

This locked-room mystery, Paul Halter's debut, won the Prix de Cognac in 1988.

The Fourth Door was originally published in 1987.

Translated by Tom Mead.
