El problema final

June 1960. A storm keeps nine people staying in the small local hotel isolated on the idyllic island of Utakos, off Corfu. Nothing suggests what is about to happen: Edith Mander, a discreet English tourist, appears dead in the beach pavilion. What seems like a suicide reveals clues imperceptible to anyone except Hopalong Basil, a declining actor who once played the most famous detective of all time on screen. No one like him, accustomed to applying the deductive skills of Sherlock Holmes in cinema, can unravel what this classic locked room enigma really hides. On an island from which no one can leave and to which no one can reach, everyone will inevitably end up becoming suspects in a fascinating problem novel where police literature mixes in an astonishing way with life.
