Hake Talbot Hake Talbot is a pen name of the American writer Henning Nelms (1900-1986). Talbot was chiefly known for his ''impossible crime'', locked room mystery novel ''Rim of the Pit'' (1944).〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Mike Grost on Hake Talbot )〕 Nelms reserved his real name for writing non-fiction about showmanship (his chief occupation was as a stage magician). During a 1981 poll by experts arranged by Edward D. Hoch, for the preface of his anthology ''All But Impossible!'', Talbot's ''Rim of the Pit'' stood second,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Ranking of Impossible Crimes by Experts )〕 next only to John Dickson Carr's ''The Hollow Man'' (1935) as the best locked room mystery. Another novel, ''The Hangman's Handyman'', which Talbot wrote in 1942, was not as successful. He also wrote two short stories, "The High House" and "The Other Side". ==References==
