he Adventure of the Murdered Millionaire (1941)

Nobody
had any reason to want Peter Jordan dead. Yet the ailing millionaire sent Ellery a
desperate call for help...and Ellery and Nikki found him murdered! No motive... no
clues... For once Ellery Queen was bogged down- until he found a very important wad of
chewing gum!
Another non-Queen story with Ellery 'sleuthing' around. Based on a radioplay by EQ.
