In these rippingshort stories, the mystery genre's greatest sleuth shows his chops.
For Ellery Queen, there is no puzzle that reason cannotsolve. In his time, he has faced down killers, thugs, and thieves, protectedonly by the might of his brainand the odd bit of timely intervention by hisfather, a burly New York police inspector. But when a university professor asksQueen to teach a class, the detective finds there are people whom reason cannottouch: college students.
Queen's adventure on campus is only the first of this incomparablecollection of short mysteries. In these pages, he tangles with a violent bookthief, an assassin who targets acrobats, and New York's only cleanly shavenbearded lady. Criminals everywhere fear him, whether they work in mansions orback alleys. No mystery is too difficult for the man with the golden brain.
