Yalancı Şahit

The story centers on an unlikely clue—a parrot—that drives the investigation. I'm curious about how the author decided to make the bird a key element in the case.

The character’s wit and approach to solving crimes added a lighthearted touch to the suspense. I wonder if Gardner intended him to be a bit of a humorous foil to the darker elements.

The story feels rooted in a specific era of detective fiction. I’d love to know whether the setting was based on real locations or crafted purely from imagination.
