They gave themselves the boundary of the island as a perimeter to make photographs. It began as a traditional interest in place—a documentary of a piec...(展开全部)

法国推理文坛的异数，是当前欧美唯一传承了约翰·狄克森·卡尔、安东尼、伯克莱等古典大师衣钵的作家。其作品皆是以不可能犯罪为主的正统推理小说，充斥着密室、不在场证明、凶器消失等令人兴奋的诡计。阴冷的哥特城堡、古老的神话传说的确让人兴奋，但若没有对古典推理小说那份执著的信念，这一切都是浮云！古典推理在后黄金时代得以延续，一方面固因读者们的忠心耿耿，另一方面更因有保罗·霍尔特这样坚持不懈的旗手，年复一年地对抗寂寞。
