The Adventures of Joseph Rouletabille (2021) is a trilogy of novels
by French writer Gaston Leroux. Originally a journalist, Leroux
turned to fiction after reading the works of Arthur Conan Doyle and
Edgar Allan Poe. This collection compiles the first three novels in
his series featuring Joseph Rouletabille, a reporter and amateur
detective whose crime solving abilities gain him a reputation
throughout Europe. Joseph Rouletabille is more than meets the eye.
A reporter by profession, he spends his free time working as an
amateur detective, using his journalistic talents to compile facts
and track down leads. In The Mystery of the Yellow Room, a young
heiress is found beaten within an inch of her life in a room locked
from the inside. When Frederic Larsan, France's top detective,
unexpectedly solves the case, Rouletabaille grows suspicious. In
The Perfume of the Lady in Black, Rouletabille is shaken by the
return of criminal mastermind Ballmeyer, an enemy he believed was
dead. The Secret of the Night finds Leroux's hero in Russia on
assignment for a French newspaper. While there, he is summoned to
the palace of Tsar Nicholas II, who wishes to employ him in his
capacity as a detective in order to foil a plot against his
generals. The Adventures of Joseph Rouletabille is an action-packed
trilogy of novels featuring revolution, murder, romance, and
endless suspense. Joseph Rouletabille is without a doubt France's
answer to Sherlock Holmes. With a beautifully designed cover and
professionally typeset manuscript, this edition of Gaston Leroux's
The Adventures of Joseph Rouletabille is a classic of French
detective fiction reimagined for modern readers.
