description: 1994, trade paperback edition (of a title first published in 1938), Harper Perennial, NY. 250 pages. Ellery Queen was a pen name for two cousins who, in the 1920s, 30s and 40s, along with Rex Stout, led the way re. American mystery writers. Most of the biggest names in the field were British, but Queen was one of the ones who turned things around. Our man Ellery has been hired as a writer out West on a major motion picture shoot. Something is about to happen to our two very visible super stars.
