Book excerpt: The Red House Mystery by A. A. Milne The Red House Mystery is a novel by A. A. Milne about the mysterious death of Robert Ablett inside the house of his brother, Mark Ablett, while a party was in progress. It is a detective novel with a simple story skillfully told. Milne is best known for his works on Winnie the Pooh, but before he became famous for telling stories about this teddy bear, he also garnered praise for "The Red House Mystery". The novel is set during a house party in Mark Ablett's mansion known as the "red house". Mark had many guests at the party including a widow and her daughter, an actress and a young man named Bill. While the party was underway, Mark's lost brother Robert arrived at the house and was soon found dead. Then suddenly the guests noticed that Mark was missing. Anthony Gillingham, a very interesting man who just went home to visit his friend Bill, acted as a crime "investigator". The two "detectives", Antony and Bill, continued to "investigate" the crime and find out who committed it. It will be up to the readers to classify who among them is Watson and who is Holmes. Milne did a great job of telling the story in a very light and fun way. Readers will appreciate this book not for the originality or complicated storyline found in other detective novels. They will enjoy reading it because of the interesting characters and humor contained in the story.

Book excerpt: Support Struggle for Public Domain: like and share http://facebook.com/BookLiberationFront "The Red House Mystery" is a classic novel by Alan Milne, who is actually better known for writing "Winnie the Pooh." Set in a country home known as the "Red House," the novel opens on a party weekend, with most of the houseguests away from the house playing golf or tennis. A typical "locked room mystery," the novel features characters who may not be all they seem to be, acting for mysterious motives ranging from love to revenge. Servants overhear bits of conversation which offer clues. The discovery of a secret passage, the appearance of a ghost, and a convenient lake to hide evidence all become part of the plot. Written in 1922, before Winnie the Pooh was even born, "The Red House Mystery" was a gift for Milne's father, a retired headmaster who loved mysteries. The book was immediately popular; Alexander Woollcott called it "one of the three best mystery stories of all time", and Raymond Chandler, in his 1944 essay The Simple Art of Murder called it "an agreeable book, light, amusing in the Punch style, written with a deceptive smoothness that is not as easy as it looks."
