The Hidden Keys is a novel by Canadian writer André Alexis. Published by Coach House Books in 2016 it is the third novel in a planned cycle of a five-novel quincunx that Alexis will use to examine faith, place, love, power and hatred, the first two being Pastoral and Fifteen Dogs. Despite being the third published novel in the series, Alexis signed the novel as Quincunx 4. It also contains a small reference to Fifteen Dogs, the previous published instalment of the Quincunx as Majnoun and Nira, two of the main characters in that novel, make a cameo appearance in The Hidden Keys.
The novel is a mystery novel set in Toronto and is at least partially inspired by the novel Treasure Island.
