John Dickson Carr was a writer in the "Golden Age" of mysteries, and he was one of the best. In his books you will not find child molesters, serial killers with a taste for liver, or melancholy P.I.'s filled with two slugs of bourbon. Rather, you will find mysteries that are cleverly crafted and that above all else adhere to the rules of "fairplay". Carr was a stickler for playing fair with the reader; There are no secret passages, unknown poisons, or last-chapter appearances by unknown characters. All of the clues needed to solve the mystery are presented and with keen observation and perseverance the reader has every chance of doing so.
Though Carr was an American most of his books (especially the early ones) were set in England. He moved to England with his wife (her native country) in 1933 and they lived there for a number of years before moving back permanently to the states in 1965. While living in England in the 1930's Carr was invited to join the London Detection Club. Some of its members included Anthony Berkeley, Margery Allingham, G.K. Chesterton, E.C. Bentley, Dorothy L. Sayers, John Rhode, and Agatha Christie. Carr was one of only two Americans to have been a member. Carr was awarded an Edgar in 1950 by the Mystery writers of America for his Conan Doyle biography. He was also awarded the highest honor by the MWA in 1970; the title of Grand Master.

The Red Widow Murders is a modern mystery with a shuddering historic background. The scene is laid in Lord Mantling's mansion on Curzon Street, in a room called the Red Widow's Chamber. In 1802, a man had died there; in 1825, a girl; in 1870 and 1876, two gentlemen were mysteriously found dead. Then the room had been sealed up.
Now, many years later, eight men and a woman gathered around a table for a sinister experiment. Among them are Sir Henry Merrivale, the rumbling, grumbling, grand old man who has become one of our best-loved detectives; Lord Mantling of the flaming hair and booming voice; Guy Brixham, his brother, sardonic and uneasy behind his glasses; Ravelle, the blond Frenchman, smiling and debonair; little, inoffensive Bender. Which one of them would draw the Ace of Spades and be escorted into the Red Widow's Chamber? Is it a death trap? ...Poison? ... Or WHAT?
具體描述
讀後感
這本書個人認為至少是可以和猶大之窗比肩的佳作，幾乎可以說是無瑕疵的密室經典。推理小說最正宗的套路，絲絲入扣，讓人迴味無窮。 一群人受到邀請去見證和參與一個古老傳說的真僞，也就是紅寡婦房間是不是真的可以殺人。亨利·梅利維爾爵士作為見證人也參與其中。抽到最大牌的...
評分我讀書比較慢，花瞭4天時間讀完瞭這本書。密室之王的大名如雷貫耳，慚愧的是，這本是我讀的第一本卡爾的書。我沒有挑卡爾的名作——例如《三口棺材》、《猶大之窗》、《燃燒的法庭》等等，而首選的是相對不太知名的《紅寡婦血案》。因為本書的內容簡介實在是吸引人。 ...
評分《紅寡婦血案》入手很久看瞭個開頭幾頁，後來手裏有事就擱下瞭。由於之前卡爾幾部作品都給我留下瞭開頭晦澀難懂的和充滿歐美風的隱晦對話，就難在耽擱之下拾起有點打怵。這兩天閑下來，拿過這本書一路讀下來，一改之前印象很順暢，跟隨著好奇的泰爾萊恩到神秘的私宅娓娓道來...

謎麵非常引人入勝，但答案完全沒有令人眼前一亮的精彩。而且最終的解答看的我十分厭煩－以前卡爾作品的解答都是一看到底纔長齣一口氣 這次非常奇怪，幾乎看不下去 看完瞭也感覺很多地方都是模模糊糊的
评分紅寡婦一書雖在百年怪屋傳說的背景上進行瞭極為翔實豐富的渲染（前兩案簡直就是蕩氣迴腸，後兩案卻是小肚雞腸...=。=），但詭計上卻毫不齣彩：補牙毒殺再換藥+腹語的不可能魔法解決方式讓人哈欠連連。天上謎團地下解答的典型：若是用瞭講義中的一則先殺設計（證明某人在某時間點仍然存活但事實已死的詭計，本就最可堪稱為天上的謎團），這個故事便不至於會滑入中流瞭。惜哉

评分四星半。"The trick was so simple, that we refused to look at the truth when it came up and kicked us. "
