Rogers, Joel Townsley American Mystery Classics FH Paperback 2020
It is a strange and terrifying story, and the solution of the mystery, while perfectly logical, is not at all what one is led to suspect.
This is the kind of book that, though brief, stretches its limbs like a cat in the August sun, padding slowly around the action, allowing only glimpses of the truth, all the while setting the reader’s crackpot theories to boiling […] the desperate calculations and dogged attention I paid The Red Right Hand culminated in the most enjoyable reading experience of my year.
This logical nightmare is completely undefinable and incapable of synopsis . . . Unique and exciting.
Anthony Boucher
Deserves its reputation as one of the best mysteries of all time.
Thoroughly gripping from first page to last . . . When the full story is finally revealed in this disturbing nightmare of a whodunnit, it will well leave readers reeling. A must-read masterpiece, thankfully resurrected.
