First edition.

This is copy 170. Very fine in dust jacket. The primary story is the lengthly and detailed plot outline for the final, but never published EQ novel, containing all the hallmarks of the greatest Queen novels...the dying message, the succession of false solutions before the astonishing truth is revealed, and scrupulous fairplay to the reader. Also contains six hitherto uncollected Ellery Queen short stories, and a section of essays, tributes, and reminiscences of Ellery Queen, written by family members, friends, and some of the finest current mystery writers in honor of Ellery Queen's 70th anniversary.
