“Ellery Queen clearly is, after Poe, the most important American in mystery fiction.”

Otto Penzler, editor of Best American Mystery Stories

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 who nails this killer before Queen is either a genius or a cheat.
