New York in the 1920s is the most glamorous city in the world. Enjoying it is like savoring the finest champagne. Philo Vance, an art expert with deep pockets, the sharpest minds, and the gloriously ridiculous claims in the history of crime novels, steps in when an intriguing young stockbroker is murdered in a delightful locked-room scenario based on a real case from that time. Vance solves the mystery, not only because he is bored and seeking new entertainment, but also because it is his honor to point out all the ways in which the police are wrong. The cops are, of course, deeply grateful, just like all members of the lower classes, when their mistakes are highlighted. Peter Wimsey would be appalled, but the reader will be thrilled. Philo Vance, making his first appearance here, is the investigator you love to hate.
