About this audiobook

The Mystery of the Yellow Room is a classic French detective novel by Gaston Leroux, first published in 1907-1908, famous for being one of the first "locked-room mysteries". It follows young journalist Joseph Rouletabille as he investigates the seemingly impossible crime of an attack on Mathilde Stangerson in a room locked from the inside, with the assailant vanishing without a trace. The story is known for its intricate plot, detailed diagrams, and the rivalry between Rouletabille and the official detective, Frederick Larson, as they race to solve the puzzle.
