I was looking for something to read, and after souring through my list for a bit, I found this. I read The Mystery of the Yellow Room a while back, so I thought it would only be appropriate to read another colored room book. I didn't really enjoy that one, so I was hoping a red room would turn out better.
Our main character is the narrator, who runs an auto garage. He is invited to help solve a crime, and he soon discovers that maybe he should have passed up the opportunity. He questions the motives of the man he initially trusted, and everyone seems to be lying or working against him.
This was actually really good. The red room itself isn't brought up all the time, but the murder is a locked room scenario. I liked the author's writing style and how everything was brought together at the end. I didn't know who to trust the entire time. Although I had an idea of what was going on, I still enjoyed the book a lot. Good Book!
