THE SIAMESE TWIN MYSTERY by Ellery Queen, World Publishing, A Tower Mystery, First Printing, 1945. This appears to be a First Printing, Book Club Edition. The book is navy blue with a printed Bat (in Blue) on the lower front corner. The dust jacket is different than the one pictured. The cover of the jacket depicts a playing card, (The Jack of Diamonds) a picture of a man in a suit in a field of bright orange trees, possibly trees a blaze in fire. A forest fire which hems in a mountain-top mansion on every side creeps gradually closer and closer is the sinister background for this equally sinister tale of murder. It was murder with such complicated and subtle clues that no one but Ellery Queen could have untangled the web, and even he thought more than once the he held the end in his hands only to discover that it was really a loose end. WOW! Awesome Mystery!
