The golden age of detective fiction left many stellar names - A. Christie, G. K. Chesterton, G. Mitchell, etc. In this bright galaxy, John Dickson Carr (1906-1977) occupies the most honorable place. "Murder in a locked room", where there is no place for frantic chases and shootouts, and the circle of suspects is maximally limited, is the author's favorite technique. Carr draws the reader into a network of cleverly placed traps, deceptive moves and subtle hints and invites him to take part in solving a cunning puzzle, unraveling the threads of "impossible" crimes. In the novel "Ten Teacups, or Murder by Peacock Feathers" Sir Henry Merrivale, one of the most charming and eccentric detectives in detective literature, once again has to investigate an "impossible crime" - a murder committed with two shots at point-blank range on a quiet fashionable street in London, in an empty house where there was no one except the victim...

The novel is published in a new translation.
