The Mystery of the Yellow Room is a classic detective novel by Gaston Leroux. The story revolves around the attempted murder of a young woman named Mathilde Stangerson, who is found unconscious in a locked room with no apparent way in or out. Her father, Professor Joseph Stangerson, is also found in the room with a head wound. Despite the room being locked from the inside, and with no apparent signs of forced entry, the attacker seems to have vanished into thin air. Enter Joseph Rouletabille, a young journalist who takes it upon himself to solve the case. With the help of Mathilde and her fianc����� Robert Darzac, Rouletabille begins to unravel the mystery of the yellow room. As he delves deeper into the case, he uncovers a web of secrets and lies, and must use his wit and intelligence to outsmart the elusive culprit.Written in 1907, The Mystery of the Yellow Room is considered a groundbreaking work of detective fiction, and is credited with popularizing the locked room mystery subgenre.
