Author John Dickson Carr

Narrator Anton Makarov

The golden age of detective fiction has given us many stellar names. The works of writers such as Agatha Christie, Gilbert Chesterton, Earl Stanley Gardner, Rex Stout developed and perfected the detective genre; their novels—unquestionably recognized as classics—are still loved by readers to this day and serve as a benchmark for subsequent generations of authors of detective stories. A place of honor in this galaxy rightfully belongs to John Dixon Carr (1906–1977)—a virtuoso master of perfectly constructed “impossible crimes” in a locked room.

In the novel “My Late Wives,” we meet again the charming and eccentric Sir Henry Merrivale, acknowledged by critics as one of the most unusual detectives in detective literature.
