The golden age of the detective gave us many star names. The works of such writers as Agatha Christie, Gilbert Chesterton, Earl Stanley Gardner, Rex Stout, developed and perfected the detective genre, their novels, unequivocally recognized as classics, are still loved by readers and are the standard of quality for subsequent generations of authors of detective stories. An honorable place in this pleiad rightfully belongs to John Dickson Carr (1906-1977) - a virtuoso master of perfectly constructed "impossible crimes in a locked room". In 1933, in the novel "Witch's Lair" John Dickson Carr first introduced to the public amateur sleuth Dr. Gideon Fell. The appearance of the hero, presumably, was written off another corypheus of the detective genre - Gilbert Chesterton, and his merits in the history of the detective genre, according to most admirers of Carr's work, are truly respectable. Thus, the writer Kingsley Amis in his essay "My Favorite Detectives" called Dr. Fell "one of the three great successors of Sherlock Holmes". This collection includes the first three novels of the cycle, telling the adventures of Dr. Fell: "The Witches' Lair" (1933), "The Mystery of the Mad Hatter" (1934) and "Eight Swords" (1934).
