The agents of the FBI are fierce, brilliant, and brave€"but nothing in their files can compare to the puzzling mysteries that have been tackled by Ellery Queen. He is a one-man crime-fighting force, whose areas of expertise range from murder and blackmail to rare books and buried treasure. At the headquarters of the Queen€s Bureau of Investigation, or QBI, there€s no crime that can€t be solved.  Whether investigating a trio of widows, a bumbling Shakespearean actor, or a blackmailed Sicilian, Queen is quick to deploy his secret weapon in the fight against crime: his brain. Each of these eighteen stories is an elegant puzzle, crafted with all the wit that has made Queen the most famous detective of his age.
