Brossura. Etat : ottimo. OTTIMO STATO NESSUN DIFETTO RILEVANTE. TEMA: Sir Tallant, magnate dell'editoria, è stato ucciso da un proiettile alla testa mentre era nel suo ascensore privato nel Temple, il palazzo dove ha sede la sua casa editrice. Vi era entrato da solo, al quinto piano, e l'ascensore non si era fermato fino al pianterreno. All'apertura delle porte, nessuno aveva avuto la possibilità di avvicinarsi alla cabina, eppure l'arma del delitto non si trova. Toccherà a una strana coppia di investigatori, l'ispettore capo David Hornbeam di Scotland Yard e il bizzarro quanto geniale medico legale e criminologo dottor Horatio Glass, sciogliere l'enigma anche grazie a una serie di piccoli indizi apparentemente privi d'importanza come, per esempio, una scatola di cioccolatini.

The humming noise of the automatic elevator stopped and the hall porter glanced idly toward the bronze doors. Twenty minutes later, when no one had emerged, the porter became uneasy and forced the doors open. Inside he found Sir Ernest Tallant, dead! Shot through the heart in a hermetically sealed elevator! It looked like the perfect crime - until Dr. Horatio Glass, in his blundering way, set Inspector Hornbeam on the track of the one crucial clue. Two famous detective story writers combine their masterly talents in this baffling and suspenseful mystery novel.
