First there is the case of the two passionate lovebirds who want to make sure that neither is a cold-blooded killer.
Then it’s off to the races, where Wolfe must choose from a stable of five likely suspects to corral a killer on horseback.
And finally the detective finds himself the confidant of a distraught, self-described grifter who claims a murderer is stalking Wolfe’s own brownstone.
Through brilliant deduction is determined to expose the truth behind the veils of illusion—and bring down the curtain on three all-too-clever murderers.
