The Vampire Tree

The review in Publishers Weeklyâ€™s Top Mystery/Thrillers 2016 says: â€œNewlywed Patricia Sheridan, the sympathetic if troubled heroine of the exquisite entry in Halterâ€™s long-runningâ€¦ mystery series, has disturbing dreams about a tree in the garden of her husbandâ€™s ancestral homeâ€¦ An ingeniously constructed fair-play puzzle, which will be hard for golden age fans to put down.â€

When Roger Sheridan moves into his ancestral home in the village of Lightwood with his young wife Patricia, she soon starts to read the diary of Lavinia, whose fiancÃ© died in impossible circumstances there a century before, strangled under a twisted tree in virgin snow. The tree is said to cover the grave of a witch who murdered young children. While Patricia tries to solve the ancient murder by reading the diary, someone starts murdering young children again and Patricia starts having nightmares where she sees the cursed tree killing Laviniaâ€™s fiancÃ©... It is left to Dr. Twist to unravel the horrors, old and new.
This is LRIâ€™s twelfth Paul Halter translation. The author, a best-selling novelist in his native France, has written over thirty novels, almost all â€˜locked roomâ€™ or â€˜impossible crime,â€™ and is widely regarded as the successor to John Dickson Carr. He appeared on BBC Radio 4â€™s program â€˜Miles Jupp in a Locked Room,â€™ broadcast on May 21, 2012.
