Description
In post-war America, Wrightsville is a town that seems to have it all. But beneath its charming facade, corruption and deceit lurk in every corner. It's here that Ellery Queen arrives, seeking inspiration for his next novel. As he settles into the local community, he becomes increasingly convinced that something sinister is at play. The town's first family, with their three daughters at its heart, are a volatile mix of fragile hopes and bitter resentments. One daughter has been left at the altar, another is trapped in an engagement with a rising politician, while a third daughter embodies the bohemian spirit of rebellion. As Queen delves deeper into Wrightsville's secrets, he finds himself drawn into a web of crime and corruption that threatens to destroy everything. With its dark and twisty plot, Calamity Town is a gripping mystery that will keep you on the edge of your seat until the very end.
