General Note
Death Among the Undead / English translation copyright © by John Pugmire 2021
General Note
"The immediate and fantastic success of "Death Among the Undead" was due to the novel twist of adding zombies to a shin honkaku country house setting, but fans of locked room mysteries and closed circle plots need not worry. The iron-clad rules regarding the zombies' behaviour and existence are rigorously obsered, and are used to create the boundaries of the mystery in a highly ingenious way."--Back cover
General Note
"Locked Room International."
General Note
"Locked Room International translates and publishes the works of international impossible crime authors past and present."--Back cover
Description
"A dozen students decide to rent a boarding house in the mountains. A nearby bioterrorism event results in the house being surrounded by zombies. Initially they are repelled by the occupants using swords and spears, but then a murder occurs inside a room locked on the inside. Paradoxically, a human could not have made the bite marks that killed the victim, but a zombie could not have got into the room. More murders occur. Theories abound, but are knocked down as soon as they are proposed. The solution is an extraordinary exercise in deduction."--Back cover
