It was in the cold bleak autumn following the spectacular Dragon murder case that Philo Vance was confronted with what was probably the subtlest and most diabolical criminal problem of his career.... This description may be from another edition of this product.
This book involves a murder by poisoning and it is up that connoisseur of the arts, amateur detective, Philo Vance to solve. Several red herrings are thrown into the plot, but true to Philo Vance's flair for solving the complex, the murderer gets his just rewards. Not as good as some of the other Philo Vance but well worth the read.
