5.0 out of 5 stars
Outstanding mystery that has sadly been overlooked., July 1, 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Chinese Orange Mystery (Hardcover)
It's unfortunate that too many people think that the only worthwhile mystery books from the 1930's are by British writers. Frederick Dannay and Manfred Lee wrote many outstanding mysteries under the name "Ellery Queen". Many of Queen's books are puzzles and one of the best is The Chinese Orange Mystery: an unknown man is found murdered in a hotel with all his clothes and the furniture reversed. The only clue I can fairly give is that in the 1930's, men wore *removable* collars as opposed to fixed collars today. Here's hoping this book gets reprinted soon!
