Krátky popis
The offices of foreign literature publisher and renowned stamp
collector Donald Kirk are often host to strange activities, but the
most recent occurrence---the murder of an unknown caller, found
dead in an empty waiting room--is unlike any that has come before.
Nobody, it seems, entered or exited the room, and yet the crime
scene clearly has been manipulated, leaving everything in the room
turned backwards and upside down. Stuck through the back of the
corpse's shirt are two long spears--and a tangerine is missing from
the fruit bowl. Enter amateur sleuth Ellery Queen, who arrives just
in time to witness the discovery of the body, only to be
immediately drawn into a complex case in which no clue is too minor
or too glaring to warrant careful consideration.Reprinted for the
first time in over thirty years, The Chinese Orange Mystery is
revered to this day for its challenging conceit and inventive
solution. The book is a ",fair-play", mystery in which readers have
all the clues needed to solve the crime. In 1981, the novel was
selected as one of the top ten locked room mysteries of all time by
a panel of mystery-world luminaries that included Julian Symons,
Edward D. Hoch, Howard Haycraft, and Otto Penzler.
