The Architecture of Murder (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798255254606)

Four impossible crimes. Four carefully constructed lies.

A man is found dead in a locked workshop, shot by a machine of his own making.
A killer moves through the city with chilling precision, leaving behind a pattern no one else can see.
A magician vanishes from an isolated house surrounded by water, only to be discovered murdered inside.
And beneath the bright lights of a traveling carnival, something far worse than murder begins to take shape.

Each case presents an impossibility.
Each solution reveals something more disturbing than the crime itself.

In The Architecture of Murder, James Scott Byrnside blends classic detective fiction with psychological tension and atmosphere, crafting mysteries where every detail is deliberate and nothing is quite what it seems.

These are not crimes of impulse.

They are crimes of design.
