The Locked Study: Who Killed the Novelist?

🕵️ The Locked Study


🔍 CASE

A famous novelist was found dead in his locked study.
The door was bolted from the inside, and there were no open windows.

On the desk were:

  • A spilled glass of wine

  • A torn page from his latest manuscript

  • A note that read: “The ending was obvious.”

Three people were in the house at the time:

  • His wife, gardening outside

  • His editor, reading in the living room

  • The maid, cleaning upstairs

There was no sign of forced entry.

⏳ PAUSE AND THINK

If the door was locked from the inside, how could this be murder?
Why would a manuscript page be torn just before death?

✅ SOLUTION

🕵️ Click to Reveal Solution

Solution:
The editor was the killer. The torn manuscript page revealed the novelist was about to expose the editor for plagiarism. Earlier, during a meeting, the editor poisoned the wine. The locked door was staged using a thin wire slipped through the keyhole to slide the bolt shut after leaving.
