Looking for trouble, Ellery Queen descends on a small town.
At the tail end of the long summer of 1940, there is nowhere in
the country more charming than Wrightsville. The Depression has
abated, and for the first time in years the city is booming. There
is hope in Wrightsville, but Ellery Queen has come looking for
death.
The mystery author is hoping for fodder for a novel, and he
senses the corruption that lurks beneath the apple pie facade. He
rents a house owned by the town s first family, whose three
daughters star in most of the local gossip. One is fragile, left at
the altar three years prior, never to recover. Another is engaged
to the city s rising political star, an upright man who s already
boring her. And then there s Lola, the divorced, bohemian black
sheep. Together, they make a volatile combination. Once he sees the
ugliness in Wrightsville, Queen sits back waiting for the crime to
come to him."
