I am in the minority of John Dickson Carr fans who do not enjoy his playing around with supernatural themes. Which is probably why Wire Cage is one of my favourites. I agree that the solution is something only Carr could have pulled off but he did leave clues. And I thoroughly enjoyed the non-Gothic, commonplace setting of a country house tennis party!

Thanks for commenting! What are your other favourite Carr books?
I have read only a third of his works but really enjoyed He Who Whispers and And So To Murder.
Both ones I haven't read yet... I look forward to getting to them!
