Josh Pachter and Dale C. Andrews have put together an entertaining and intriguing anthology for Ellery Queen fans, brought to you by Wildside Press. As with any anthology, some offerings are stronger than others, but none of the mysteries here completely missed the mark. The dying clue is, of course, one of the main tropes in this homage to the Ellery Queen puzzles, and there are some really fine examples of it in this book. Suffice to say, if you're a fan of the original adventures, you'll want to sit back and try your hand at solving the misadventures.
