French's department store was famous for the rare merchandise it offered its elite clientele. But no one there could be proud of its latest exclusive window display: the bloodstained corpse of the owner's wife. Ellery Queen and his father, Inspector Richard Queen, soon discover that this palace of commerce is a viper's nest of fear, jealousy, suspicion, and hatred, where love is cheap and the price of honor marked down. But worst of all is the mysterious mocking mastermind who is out to turn the glittering store into a bargain basement of murder.

Mystery from the era of the classics

Surprisingly obtuse and overblown detective fiction.
Revisado: 12-27-24
It took the first several hours for the main characters to figure out the most basic and obvious deductions. It was almost as though a certain word count was required and so needed hours of ridiculous filler.I listened to the end more for comedy than anything else. Verbose and overblown.

Historia4.5 out of 5 stars 21
Edgar Award winner Otto Penzler returns with a new anthology of exhilarating mysteries, assembling Victorian society's lords and ladies and most miserable miscreants. Behind the velvet curtains of horse-drawn carriages and amid the soft glow of the gaslights are the detectives and bobbies sniffing out the safecrackers and petty purloiners who plague everything from the soot-covered side streets of London to the opulent manors of the countryside. Brush off your dinner jackets and straighten out your ball gowns for these exciting, glitzy mysteries.

Good to listen to over the holidays

Great stories butchered by narration.

Great collection of stories. Kudos to editor. Abysmal narration by the male narrator. If audible ever charges for this particular version, do yourself and the stories a service. Buy and read the book for yourself.

This volume will showcase the international grand design led by Benjamin Franklin that manifested in the establishment of the American republic and trace the next 130 years of world history as the USA was targeted for destruction by oligarchical forces from London and also from within leading up to the assassination of William McKinley in 1901.

Important book not done justice by narrator
Revisado: 06-24-23
Outstanding walk through history. Mathew Ehret and Cynthia Chung deserve high praise for their tireless research and integrity in bringing this and several other books to us. I can’t thank them enough. I am very disappointed in their choice of narrator however, and hope they will have this book redone in order to do proper justice to this work. The narrator is so hard to listen to that I keep having to force myself to continue in spite of the wonderful content. He even tells you the title and authors at the beginning of each chapter. Aggravating! Great book, terrible reading of it.
