### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    This is quite an interesting puzzle with a fascinating cast of characters.
  

*by J***E on Reviewed in the United States on March 14, 2023*

I'm sure I read this novel many years ago when I was thoroughly enjoying the classic authors of the so-called Golden Age of the Mystery Story. Ngaio Marsh was one of my favorites along with Agatha Christie and Margery Allingham. I don't think I have read all 33 of the Inspector Alleyn mysteries, but I do think I probably read most of them. Ngaio Marsh is a terrific writer and her prose has never been stilted or dated as can be found in other mystery novels from the 1930's and '40's. In this very early Roderick Alleyn mystery he does come across as a bit of a toff, but soon in this series he becomes a fine example of a modern professional who relies even more heavily on Inspector Fox and the rest of his team.This early Ngaio Marsh novel is a fascinating murder mystery set among a theatrical cast of characters with several suspects and a great puzzle for the reader to solve. I enjoyed immensely rereading "Enter a Murderer" and will continue my journey back through this excellent series. The author Deborah Crombie comes to mind as a modern equivalent of the writer who pays attention to the development of her lead characters as did Ms Marsh as her series continued.

    Drama of the Best Kind
  

*by K***R on Reviewed in the United States on March 4, 2023*

I admit that didn't come close to guessing the killer. An interesting and singular experience for me since I generally have figured it out in the few chapters. Ngaio Marsh is the Queen of Mystery Writers.

    Marsh Takes A Great Leap Forward With Her Second Novel
  

*by G***R on Reviewed in the United States on June 7, 2015*

Ngaio Marsh (1985-1982) was one of the four “Queens of Crime” (the others being Marjorie Allingham, Agatha Christie, and Dorothy L. Sayers) who largely defined the 20th Century English murder mystery. All her mystery novels feature Inspector Roderick Alleyn of Scotland Yard, and the 1935 ENTER A MURDERER is his second appearance.  The novel also marks the first appearance of a character that will eventually be known as “Br’er Fox,” Alleyn’s most trusted assistant.Although she is now best recalled as an author, Marsh was also a professional stage actress and director, and ENTER A MURDERER is set against the theatrical world that she knew so well.  Reporter Nigel Bathgate has received two tickets for a popular stage thriller playing at The Unicorn Theatre, a play titled The Rat and the Badger.  He invites Alleyn to join him for the performance—and pretense becomes fact when an actor is murdered.In Marsh’s first novel, A MAN LAY DEAD, Alleyn was a cardboardish figure, and most of the novel followed Bathgate.  In ENTER A MURDERER, however, Alleyn is much more developed and completely in charge, and the result is much more satisfying.  The people who work at the theatre, and the atmosphere of the theatre itself, is also memorably developed.  This is still not Marsh at her best, but it is easy to see how rapidly her confidence as a writer has improved, and although the book takes a few mis-turns, it is a fascinating read.  Recommended.GFT, Amazon Reviewer
