Typical Ellery Queen with a few red herrings and his wrapping up the solution at the end. The number 9 figures heavily throughout the story. Read it to see how and where it plays in. Enjoyable read for me and my liking of this series. ( ) no reviews | add a review

The final novel by the legendary Ellery Queen, A Fine and Private Place ranks with Queen's incomparable best.The nine-word clue was one of nine cryptic notes that had been sent to taunt Inspector Queen and his son Ellery nine days after the murder. Nino Importuna had been obsessed with the number. He had lived by it. Now the killer who brought a trio of gory deaths to Nino's ninth-floor penthouse at Number 99 East was camouflaging his identity in a jungle of nines-and daring Ellery to find him. The case was destined to be a dazzling contest of wits-to the ninth degree! No library descriptions found. |
