Publisher's Summary

The silent rush of footsteps, the muffled shriek, the ever-tightening noose of exotic silk…the mark of the Cat. The Cat had claimed number nine.

The Cat had nine kills, but Ellery Queen found number ten alive and offered the victim temptingly to the killer. The trap was baited, and Ellery and the police poised for the strike that had to come. But the strangler struck elsewhere - and Queen's heart chilled at the thought of what he would find.

A classic fiction crime novel proving history truly repeats

This could have been penned in 2022. The media seems not to have changed. The ‘Elites’ are as tragically liberal’ as they are today. Race baiting tactics pervade politics, newspapers and radio. New York is a tinder box of social issues fomented by corruption, throw in a multiple murderer (serial killer has yet to be coined) and more than just a few individual murders are on the line. Even Broadway gets in on the act. It is so freakishly similar as to almost add a more frightening aspect to the criminal proceedings in this book. The only thing real life doesn’t have, sadly, are the heroes and a resolution to the story.
