At the heart of a festive birthday party, a sinister mystery unfolds. Ellery Queen is invited to celebrate publishing heir John Sebastian's 30th year, but the festivities take a dark turn when an uninvited guest appears and vanishes. As gifts with threatening clues begin to appear under the tree, Queen must use his novice crime-solving skills to unravel the killer's puzzle before it's too late.

This gripping mystery, penned by one of America's most famous fictional detectives, promises to keep you on the edge of your seat. First published nearly a century ago, this classic whodunit has stood the test of time, challenging readers with its intricate puzzles and fair-play mysteries.
