John Dickson Carr: Dark of the Moon (USA 1987)
From the Publisher:
When Dr. Gideon Fell, that most eminent of eccentric sleuths finds himself at a party whose guests are in a state of deep agitation, all the faculties of his detective genius are called into play. Why is the host of the party -- Henry Maynard, a Southern Aristrocrat -- so cryptic about the strange goings-on in the stately mansion? And how is the theft of a scarecrow linked to a diabolical and ingenious murder (the exact duplicate of one committed three centuries before)? Fell's cunning proceeds to uncover the dastardly motives to the deeds that have been taking place in the dark of the moon.
