Gloria Guild is the singing "glory" of the thirties and the millionairess wife of Count Carlos Armando, renowned only for his succession of wealthy wives. When she is murdered, her husband is the obvious suspect, but he has a perfect alibi. So who could he have got to do it for him? The only clue is the word "face," penned in her dying scrawl. But whose face? And why? Ellery Queen pursues the glory riddle from the Bowery to a way-out wedding - and a surprise climax that will jolt you into cold shock. Anyone whonails this killer before Queen is either a genius or a cheat.

even though I guessed the murderer , I loved this book. There were a couple of tidbits I hadn't tealized.

1 of my favorite Ellery Queens

And pretty early on. But it was still worth listening till the end. A little overly wordy, maybe.

Yes I did guess who

I go to Ellery Queen for elaborate, decorous, thought-provoking plots peppered with good-natured humor and literary allusions. But this story, late in the series (published n 1967), has a touch more grit. Not surprising for a cast of characters that began life back in 1929. Beyond a radically different social milieu (and a completely new audience), all writers tend -- if they know what's good for them -- to change over the course of three decades. So, here we have friendships that start out with promise and end badly. There's this thing called the sexual revolution. The Beatles come in for a knock. And, while the crime is solved, the sleuths end up at odds with one another. Still, the grit doesn't get in the way of the enjoyment.

The one fly in this otherwise perfect ointment is the usually terrific Robert Fass. He's my favorite Queen reader, and his Scottish detective sports a fine brogue. But his British songstress slides unstably from cockney to upper class and back again.

Love the Ellery Queen stories. I have been a fan for a very long time.

Attention grabbing story

A fun, light read with a few twists. Although I came to the solution early, some of the twists made me rethink my assertions. Worth the listen.

A Good Detective Mystery

I did enjoy this story. The characters were strong and so believable. Once again I did not know who the killer was until the very end.

Ellery saves the day in the knick of time.

The Ellery Queen series starts with “innocent” murders if one can call murder innocent. It’s an anthology of the moral fiber of America. From a time where women are chaperoned to a time when they are preyed upon by men an then finally to women murders.

It’s a story that I could not stop listening to. I had an idea of who were the criminals but I could not figure out the logistics. The skilled author purposely allowed the reader to see the murderers but skillfully withheld the ability for the reader to be confident of the identity of the murderers until the last chapter.

To make a comparison, it’s like a bag of potato chips. I had to keep munching till the bag was empty!

Twisty

I used to like the show years ago. I watched a few episodes on Youtube. I'm a big Murder She Wrote and Bones fan, both the shows and the books. I thought I'd give Ellery Queen a try. I just didn't really care for the two main people, so I didn't particularly enjoy it. And if I heard about bewbs one more time - jeeze they had a fixation on that. I guess the reveal was okay. It was both expected and unexpected. I don't plan on reading anymore of the series.

Not my cup of tea
