The Tragedy of X by Barnaby Ross, Ellery Queen

krikketgirl's review against another edition

3.0

Neat period piece, with a too-good-and-quirky-to-be-true detective and lots of stolid police plodding, but engaging use of words and a little plot twist to make it worthwhile.

Not my favorite Ellery Queen book and a little too long, but still a decent mystery. I did like getting to know the eccentric Drury Lane here in The Tragedy of X. I may have to continue the series.
