  Four classic stories by the New York Times bestselling grandmaster of mystery, each paired with an incisive new introduction. 
   
   
    
  A thriller writer is embroiled in a real-life whodunit when a friend drops dead with her hatpin impaled in his back. The violation of a sealed West Bank tomb, its rock walls intact, provides a Thebes investigator with a mystifying conundrum. Two sisters take shelter in a shuttered old house at the end of a country road . . . only to discover they're not alone. And the author's most beloved characters, Amelia Peabody and Radcliff Emerson, make an appearance in a newly uncovered tale with a witty nod to Sherlock Holmes. 
   
   
    
  Settle in with this quartet of short stories—now available for the first time in a single volume—from one of the most popular mystery writers of all time. The Locked Tomb Mystery and Other Stories features a preface and introductions to each story by mystery authors Tasha Alexander, Juliet Blackwell, and Daniel Stashower, and Egyptologist Salima Ikram.

  The Mysterious Mansion

  The Mysterious Mansion by Honoré de Balzac is a gothic mystery set in the quiet French town of Vendôme, where a crumbling manor known as La Grande Bretêche hides a chilling secret. Told through the eyes of a curious traveler and an enigmatic innkeeper, the story slowly unravels a tale of betrayal, confinement, and a deadly silence that has haunted the abandoned estate for over a decade. When whispers of a Spanish nobleman, a secret affair, and a wall hastily constructed in the dead of night come to light, the house’s locked doors begin to echo with ghostly revelations. Balzac’s tale is as much a psychological drama as it is a ghost story, blending romance, suspense, and moral reckoning in classic 19th-century fashion. 
   Perfect for fans of Edgar Allan Poe, Daphne du Maurier, and Charlotte Brontë.
