The Red House Mystery

The Red House Mystery

Welcome to June's Second Sunday Story. On the second Sunday of the month we leave behind contemporary fiction and enjoy a gentle throwback to another time and place. This month's offering is a tribute to AA Milne in honor of the 100th anniversary of the amazing Winnie the Pooh stories. In addition to being a world famous children's author Milne was a successful playwright and a novelist. The Red House Mystery was his only mystery story, written for his father who was a tremendous fan the genre. Settle back, relax, and enjoy this excerpt from a classic country house mystery.
