Summary

Ellery Queen returned to Wrightsville to solve the mystery of a rich man - believed poor - who died of "old age," a poor man - believed rich - who committed suicide, and a scholarly drunk who disappeared. Shortly it occurred to Queen that the puzzle had a pattern. A twisted mind was committing murder according to an old nursery rhyme! Doctor, lawyer, merchant, chief…and to at least one person in town, the chief was Ellery Queen.

A good story but not as convincing as the others

It's very much in the classic Ellery Queen tradition. that said, I found how the plot line at the end was pulled together less convincing than others. Personally, if I was short of time, might skip this one and go straight to the next.

Wonderful Period Crime Writing

Ellery Queen is an old school sleuth with shades of Sherlock Holmes & Lord Peter Whimsey. Excellent in every way possible
