Description:
<DIV><B>Ellery Queen and his father take refuge with a killer in this classic manor-house mystery starring one of crime fiction&rsquo;s most legendary sleuths.</B><BR /><BR /> Driving along a lonely mountain road, detective Ellery Queen and his father, Richard, round a bend and nearly run headlong into a forest fire. To escape, they race up the mountain and take shelter at the cliffside manor of Dr. John Xavier, a surgeon of considerable repute. Ellery quickly suspects something strange is going on inside the house&mdash;from Xavier&rsquo;s bizarre references to his work to the pair of eyes Ellery sees burning in the dark&mdash;but before he can confront Xavier about what he&rsquo;s doing in his laboratory, the good doctor is found shot dead while playing solitaire&mdash;and the only clue is a ripped six of spades.<BR /><BR /> With the help of his father, a gruff police inspector, Ellery sets about solving the crime. The suspects include the victim&rsquo;s valet, a pair of conjoined twins, and the mysterious Mr. Smith. In this game, the stakes are life and death.<BR /><BR /> One of the earliest novels starring the storied Ellery Queen, <I>The Siamese Twin Mystery</I> is a classic golden-age murder mystery. From the manor-house setting to the gothic atmosphere, it presents an Edgar Award&ndash;winning author at his very best.</DIV><DIV>&#160;</DIV>
