At exactly midnight, a gunshot shatters the silence of an aristocratic estate and all eyes turn to the crimson-curtained window where a figure was last seen alive.Behind that red window, a secret died. Or did it?When a young nobleman is found murdered in a locked room, suspicion immediately falls on his mysterious fiancée, his estranged brother, and a housemaid with too many secrets. But nothing is what it seems, and the answers lie within the house's strange architecture and its blood-tinted window that seems to watch everything-and everyone.In The Red Window, Fergus Hume delivers a masterfully constructed mystery soaked in gothic atmosphere and rich with psychological tension. It's a tale of family betrayal, forbidden love, and a house that holds too many secrets for comfort. Each chapter tightens the grip of suspense, luring readers toward a shocking and unexpected climax.The window may be red-but it's what lies behind it that will haunt you.
