When Ellery Queen and his father encounter a raging forest fire during a mountain drive, the only direction to go is up?up a winding dirt road that leads to an isolated hillside manor, inhabited by a secretive surgeon and his diverse guests. The Queens spend the night and the next morning their host is discovered dead, apparently shot while playing solitaire the night before. The only clue is a torn six of spades. The suspects include a society beauty, a suspicious valet, and a pair of conjoined twins. When another murder follows, and a torn jack of diamonds is discovered, left as a dying clue, the killer inside the house becomes as threatening as the flames outside the house. Faced with a complex set of alibis, motives, and evidence, Ellery Queen must rely on his powers of deduction and logic to uncover the murderer?s identity?but can he solve this whodunnit before the fire devours its subjects? A clean very presentable copy. N° de réf. du vendeur 016101
