The Judas Window

Carter Dickson (John Dickson Carr) · William Morrow (New York) · 1938

Berkley reissued the novel in 1964 as The Crossbow Murder — a retitled paperback reprint and a textbook 'first thus' trap with no first-edition standing. Later reprints include International Polygonics (1987, LCCN 87080305) and Poisoned Pen Press (2026). On the Morrow first, any copyright-page line reading 'Second Printing' or later rules the copy out; no book-club printing of either 1938 issue is documented in the sources consulted.
